Patented Servo Gearmotor

A new servo gearmotor with a patented design promises high performance, efficiency, high power density, reliability, and optimized heat transfer.

A low-backlash, single-stage gearbox is integrated with a high-performance servomotor. This integrated design results in a smaller size, shorter length, and minimized weight compared to standard gear attachments. The elimination of couplings also reduces drive train inertia, offering higher throughputs. In addition, a special gear tooth manufacturing process boasts smooth gear movement and provides nominal efficiencies up to 98 percent.

The servo gearmotor is available in three frame sizes (55, 70, and 100 mm) with two defined gear ratios per frame size, combined with four motor stack lengths.

Its gearbox has a special membrane to keep the internal pressure at a constant rate, thereby reducing contamination and premature failure. The integrated design eliminates the front flange and provides a rigid coupling for proper alignment. The elimination of the front flange also allows optimized heat transfer to improve the continuous power output and provide overload capability for applications with higher cycle rates.
