Motors combine low inertia and high power

A Parker Hannifin - Electromechanical and Drives Division product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jan 28, 2008

The HPLA and the entire HLE family offer easy belt tensioning implemented at the idler end of the actuator.

Parker's Electromechanical Automation Division has released MPP motor options for the HPLA and HLE configurables.

Designed for demanding applications in high-performance servo systems, MPP motors offer lower inertia and higher power, all in a smaller package than conventional motors.

The addition of these motors to the HPLA and HLE belt-driven product configurables makes creating a complete system, from actuator to gearhead to motor, easier than ever.

The configurable option includes mounting flanges and pinions for the MPP motors to be easily mounted in the field, or customers can save time and have the motors mounted directly at Parker.

Parker still provides mounting hardware for thousands of different motor models and manufacturers.

Parker has also released new feature of the HLE60 to match the HPLA product line feature set.

The HPLA and the entire HLE family offer easy belt tensioning implemented at the idler end of the actuator.

This allows belt tensioning to be done without removing the load.

Maintenance time is reduced and the machine will be up and running in no time with this easy-to-tension design style.

This feature, coupled with the direct-mount gearbox design on the HPLA and the complete HLE family, reduce overall cost of ownership by as much as 20%.

"The new HLE60 design is just like the HPLA family with a belt tension station at the idler end of the actuator instead of the carriage", says Ben Furnish, Product Manager.

"The pulley on the motor end can now be mounted directly to the gearbox shaft instead of using couplings, again like the HPLA, and we have implemented standard configurables for the MPP motors on the HPLA/HLE family".
