Gearmotor combines 4 drive components in one package.
Press Release Summary:
Type 34B4/FV-5N gearmotors combine 34B brushless DC motor with right-angle gearhead, built-in PWM speed control, and optical encoder. Rated at ¼ hp (187 W), these 24 Vdc gearmotors offer continuous torque up to 104 lb-in., rated output speeds from 63–500 rpm, and gear ratios from 5:1 to 40:1. Components, together, form drive package that simplifies design, wiring, and assembly. Uses include low-voltage applications such as medical equipment, packaging machines, and factory automation.
Original Press Release:
New Low-Voltage, Right-Angle Brushless DC Gearmotors from Bodine Combine Four Drive Components in One Compact Package
Bodine Electric Company's new type 34B4/FV-5N gearmotors combine Bodine’s 34B brushless DC motor with a right-angle gearhead, a built-in PWM speed control, and an optical encoder. Together, they create a high-performance drive package that radically simplifies design, wiring, and assembly.
These 24 VDC gearmotors are ideal for a wide range of low-voltage applications such as medical equipment, packaging machines, and factory automation. They are also suitable for portable or remote applications where connection to an AC line is not possible.
Features:
• Gearmotor— power: 1/4 hp (187 watts); continuous torque: up to 104 lb-in. (12 Nm); rated output speeds: from 63-500 RPM. Gear ratios: from 5:1 to 40:1.
•Â Integrated Control—Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) interface provides voltage control, amplifier enable, direction and dynamic braking inputs. Accepts inputs from an external motion controller or Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).
•Â Optical Encoder—Closed-loop feedback to the external control from an enclosed 1024 PPR, two channel quadrature, optical encoder.
