Pancake-Style Motors are suited for beam line applications.
Used in applications where clearance hole at centerline is vital to machine operation, custom Hollow Series Motors are available as 2-phase stepper or 3-phase brushless motors. They are offered with power range of 25-2,500 W in sizes ranging from 8-60 in. dia, with maximum bore size of 20-25% of motor dia. Large bore or hollow shaft configurations enable use in vacuum, radiation, and other harsh...

AC Induction Motors feature enclosed, waterproof design.
Available in 8 standard frame sizes, stainless steel Series WD withstands frequent wetting or washdown. For food service and other washdown applications where motor is not normally submerged, units are supplied with cooling fans. For marine or nuclear applications where submerged motors are cooled by surrounding water, motors are oil-filled and pressure-compensated. Custom versions for use in...

Step Motors suit marine and submarine applications.
Submersible Series Stainless Steel Step Motors are internally sealed, eliminating corrosion and motor failure in fluid processing, washdown, and submersion environments. Standard washdown motors are partially filled with oil to prevent liquid ingress, while motors intended for complete submersion are filled with oil and are pressure-compensated. Submersible motors come in 23, 34, and 42 frame...

ROHNERT PARK, CA - Empire Magnetics cryogenic motors have been tested by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) for continuous duty at cryogenic temperatures. The testing conditions were in one atmosphere nitrogen at approximately 110 K (-163 deg C). The motors operated nearly continuously at 60 RPM - about the speed that JPL expects the aerobot/blimp propeller motors to operate at on an actual...
