Maxon new sterilizable motors
Maxon Motor presents the two sterilizable drives “EC Size 5 sterilizable” and “EC 13 sterilizable”. These small and precise motors are perfect for use in high speed medical applications.
These fast motors are stand-alone or as motor/gearhead combination, designed for the use with or without the specially matched planetary gearboxes.
The drives are characterized by their high nominal speed, low-noise and low-vibration operation, marginal thermal emission and small size.
The new sterilizable motors are suitable for different target markets: motor and gearbox of Size 5 variant possess dimensions in U.S. Customary Units resulting in an outside diameter of ؽ inch and a shaft of Ø0.125 inch. The motor has a so-called “Servo Mount”, a well-established type of motor fixation.
The EC 13 / GP 13 variant’s home is the metric system, which results in an outer diameter of Ø13 mm, a Ø3 mm shaft and a flange with 3 face side threads.
Despite their “personalized outer wrapping”, the two drives are characterized by some similarities: a particularly for medical technology adapted, compact design with very high nominal speed, quiet running, minimized thermal emission and sterilizability of typically 500 autoclave cycles.
Both motors are available either equipped with Hall sensors or sensorless as well as with three different windings. The gearheads come with versions with one, two or three stages as well as with or without output end shaft sealing.
