    SEW-Eurodrive’s CMP family of servomotors now offers torque ratings of 0.5 to 45 Nm, and is available in six frame sizes with speed ratings of 3000, 4500 and 6000 rpm.
  • DC motors for the food industry
    The BG65 motors from Dunkermotoren have smooth housings in order that machinery and facilities manufacturers working within the food and beverage industry are able to capitalise on the advantages of electronically commutated DC motors.
  • DC motors with integrated drives
    The GR53 and GR63 motors from Dunkermotoren are cost-effective DC commutator motors with comprehensive digital electronic regulation and control.

    The RE 65 power package delivers 250 W and can cope with the toughest demands. The motor is particularly suitable for applications where high efficiency, high power density and a minimal operating noise are crucial.
  • Brushless DC motors
    The GR 22, G 30.1 and G 30.0 motors are now available in versions with neodymium magnets. Compared with the basic version of the motors with ferrite magnets, they offer up to 30% higher starting torque. The speed characteristic of these motors under load is marked by a flatter characteristic curve and thus smaller variations in speed.
  • Stepper motors
    The EMMS-ST range of stepper motors supplements the CMMS-ST range of drives.
  • Brushless DC servomotors
    Dunkermotoren has released the BG 42, an optimised brushless DC-motor with Hall sensors and flying leads as well as the brushless DC servomotor BG 45 with integrated power and logic electronics. They provide output power up to 75 W and torque up to 16 Ncm.
  • DC motor and drive packages
    Electronically commutated DC motors now incorporate functions that were previously the preserve of AC servo-motors. With output powers up to 500 W and torques up to 5 Nm, the BG75 DC motors by Dunkermotoren are able to take on numerous drive tasks in industrial automation.
  • Brushless DC servomotors
    The elctromechanically commutated Smartshell DC micromotors from Faulhaber are made with an all-in-one design concept — lamination stack, coil and PCB combined in a single-moulded injection — which provides the motors with a robust housing. The rotor consists of a permanent NdFeB magnet fitted onto a through shaft supported by preloaded ball bearings.
  • Synchronous servomotors
    Mavilor’s BL Series is a synchronous electrical servomotor, with three winding phases, supplied with sinusoidal or trapezoidal current wave forms.
  • AC servomotors
    The short mechanical time constant of the Mavolor MA Series AC servomotors makes them suitable for control operations, while an extremely short electrical time constant provides high peak torque at high speed. A high ‘theoretical’ acceleration also gives an extremely fast response time.
  • Inverter/geared motor combination
    The Movimot ‘D’ extends the continuous operating power of SEW-Eurodrive’s Movimot range of inverter/geared motor combinations to 4 kW. Incorporating SEW-Eurodrive’s MEPS-compliant and high-efficiency DR motor series and backwards-compatible with previous Movimot versions, the Movimot ‘D’ provides a flexible, energy-efficient, decentralised drive solution.
  • Miniature stepper motor
    With a diameter of 22 mm and a high power-to-volume ratio, the AM 2224 achieves an output of 2.5 W and a peak holding torque of 45 mNm.
  • Miniature stepper motor
    With an outer diameter of 6 mm, a length of 9.3 mm and weighing 1.4 g, the ADM 0620 is claimed to be the smallest two-phase miniature stepper motor in the world.
  • Brushless DC servomotor
    The Faulhaber Series 2057 motor is fitted with a high-energy rare earth magnet which results in a very responsive mechanical time constant of only 8 ms. The skew winding in combination with the laminated stator also provides good heat dissipation and high overload capability.
  • X-Y positioning base
    Baldor Electric Company has launched a ready-engineered linear stepper X-Y positioning base that is capable of dramatically increasing productivity in a wide range of machinery applications.
  • DC motors
    The Portescap Athlonix high power density brush DC motors are compact, high-efficiency, high-endurance motors delivering high speed-to-torque performance in a compact lighter weight package (15-53 g depending on frame size) with output power of up to 9 W.
  • Brushless DC motor
    The EC-powermax 22 achieves high torque at slow speeds compared to other similar-sized brushless DC motors. The EC motor is particularly suitable for process applications like handheld tools such as slicing and drilling machines where top performance is required per volume and weight unit.
  • Low-voltage AC motors
    ABB Australia has launched low-voltage AC motors with improved energy efficiency and life cycle value. The motors are available from 0.06 to 95 kW while the frame size starts from 56, going all the way to 250. The range is classified into three ranges: general performance, industrial performance and process performance. Frame materials include cast iron and aluminium.
  • Electric actuators
    The E-Rodless range of electric actuators is designed to reduce the installation and commissioning time normally associated with some electric actuators.
  • Brushless DC servomotors
    Dunkermotoren has released the BG 42, an optimised brushless DC-motor with Hall sensors and flying leads as well as the brushless DC servomotor BG 45 with integrated power and logic electronics. They provide output power up to 75 W and torque up to 16 Ncm.

  • Linear DC servomotor
    The LM 1247 series linear DC servomotor by Faulhaber, with dimensions as small as 12.5 x 47 mm and a weight of merely 56 g, can produce a peak force of up to 9.4 N at full power. The standard product has a stroke length of 20 mm and is optionally available up to 80 mm.
  • Brushless DC servomotors
    The elctromechanically commutated Smartshell DC micromotors from Faulhaber are made with an all-in-one design concept — lamination stack, coil and PCB combined in a single-moulded injection — which provides the motors with a robust housing.
  • Electronically commutated motors
    Brushless, electronically commutated motors have a higher service life than brush motors. The commutation electronics are integrated in the new EC-max 16 2-wire motor which is only 16 mm in diameter, 33.5 mm long and has a nominal output of 5 W.
  • Planetary gearhead
    ValueTrue is a low-cost addition to the Micron gearhead range, with 4 arc minute backlash, eight frame sizes in true planetary inline and right-angle configurations.
