EC16 Brushless DC Servo Gearmotor Maxon Precision Motors (Fall River, MA) offers a newly designed EC16 brushless DC servo gearmotor that offers a 60° winding pattern, NdFeB high-performance magnet, and higher power output. The EC 16 is available in five winding types as well as with hall sensors or sensorless. Four high-power motors are available: 30 Watt or 60 Watt, and sterilizable or non-steriliable. The new design features a torque/ speed gradient reduced by approximately 60% and maximum continuous torque increased approximately by 80%. Other improvements include higher stability, quiet running, larger bearings, higher forces, improved performance, and higher torque.
Improving extruded components requires careful attention to a number of factors, including dimensional tolerance, material selection, and processing. Trelleborg’s Dan Sanchez provides detailed insights into each of these considerations to help you advance your device innovations while reducing costs and speeding time to market.
