Applimotion Introduces the HO Series Brushless Servo Motor


HO Series motors combine an industry standard NEMA 23 mounting with a large through hole and high resolution encoder to make an unbeatable package for light assembly and inspection applications.

HO Series motors are the ultimate cross between a brushless servo motor and a precision rotary stage, providing the accuracy, resolution and repeatability of the rotary stage with packaging and cost of a motor.

HO series motors come with an internally mounted high resolution glass encoder grating. An encoder read head is mounted to the rear of the motor and can easily be replaced or upgraded in the field. Standard resolutions greater than 29,000,000 counts/revolution can be achieved with repeatability at 0.3 microradians. Applimotion aligns the grating to better than 24 microradians of absolute accuracy using a precision Autocollimator.

HO motors come with a 16mm though bore in the shaft so customers can run wires, fiber optic cables, laser beams, vacuum, and other medium through the motor. This feature combines direct drive motor technology in standard motor packaging for simple machine integration. Thin cross section precision ABEC-7 bearings are standard.

Applimotion has minimized cogging torque without expensive skewing of stator laminations. Torque curves have less than 1% harmonic distortion for smooth operation with sinusoidal current control amplifiers. Standard windings are available for 12, 24, and 48 volts, (custom windings are available).
