Motion Spotlight - MOTORS & DRIVES

• 15 psi-rated shaft seals
• O-ring seals

Submersible motors.

These stainless motors for deep sea and marine applications are built to customer specifications based on specific application requirements. The oil-filled, pressure-compensated assemblies are being used 2500 feet below the surface in U.S. Naval vehicles, and are also being used as hydrofoil controls. The waterproof motors have integral housing seals; the bodies are sealed with O-rings. Shaft seals are rated for 15 psi. The housing, flange and shaft are composed of 303 stainless steel; 316 stainless is available for more corrosive environments such as saltwater. The company also provides waterproof-type motors for nitric acid, acetone, cutting fluids, oil and other fluids on a case-by-case basis. Empire Magnetics Inc, Rohnert Park, CA. Free info--Circle 560.

DC motor kits. This line of slotless brushless DC motor kits eliminate bearing, housing and alignment problems. Sizes range 1.3-in. dia to 15-in. dia. Speeds range from less than 1/4 revolution per hour to over 100,000 rpm. EADmotors, Waterbury, CT. Free info--Circle 561. http://www.OneRS.net/102df-561  

Stepping motor with encoder. The PK Series of 2-phase stepping motors are available with an optical encoder. They use a 200 pulse per revolution or 400 pulse per revolution optical encoder to provide the encoder feedback signals to verify step position. Oriental Motor, Torrance, CA.

Booster motors. With the release of their software version 1.3, up to four LinMot P industrial linear motors can be connected together to achieve force from 7 to 180 lb-f. The boosters are mechanically attached to achieve the increased force; the software does the rest. This allows users to easily upscale if they require additional force. Depending on the application, motors can be arranged side by side, or behind one another. LinMot, Rogers, MN. Free info--Circle 563. http://www.OneRS.net/102df-563

Synchronizing controller. Designed to work with the company's VLT 5000 Series drives, this controller provides speed and position synchronizing, and position synchronizing with marker correction. Danfoss Drives, Rockford, IL. Free info--Circle 567. http://www.OneRS.net/102df-567

Stepper motor controllers. The TMC428 is a complete high-performance, low-cost controller for up to 3 stepper motors. Target position, velocity and acceleration parameters can be modified quickly. No motion control software is required. Trinamics, Hamburg, Germany. Free info--Circle 565

Size 23 slotted brushless DC motor. ELCOM ST Size 23 motors are available in a standard 2 in. stack length (in addition to 1/2- and 1-in. lengths). The low-cost design delivers high power, fast acceleration, consistent performance and long life. Pittman, Harleysville, PA. Free info--Circle 570. http://www.OneRS.net/102df-570

Stepper motor driver. The 2.5 Amp CY-45 has a footprint smaller than a playing card. A bipolar, chopper-type drive, it works with 2- and 4-phase step motors in the full/half step mode. It provides an interface to the power supply, motor and signals. CyberPak Co, Downers Grove, IL. Free info--Circle 571.
