• Gear Drives
  for a variable-speed power source (as in an automobile). Variable mechanical drives are less costly than competing electrical variable-speed drives and their control is much simpler. But mechanical drives often are not as durable and cannot be controlled as precisely as electrical drives. And except for gear drives...
• Drive Helps Gear Dyno Keep its Cool
  returns to the input motor. The drives' closed-loop flux vector control lets the dynamometer supply the consistent 128 lb-ft of torque at 2,800 rpm needed for break-in tests. In practice, technicians using the equipment plot. Drive Helps Gear Dyno Keep its Cool | Machine Design. Skip to Content...
• High-performance gear reducers keep pace with latest servomotors
  reducer) in some applications. However, direct drives work best for relatively lighter loads only. Manufacturers of PCBs, for example, use direct-drive chip shooters to rapidly locate surface-mount components. Heavier loads and the subsequent inertia mismatch with the motor can bring control and stability...
• Stepper Motor Closes The Loop Around Tough Moves
  gear ratios from 5:1 to 50:1. An optional electromagnetic brake is activated to hold the position when power fails or is switched off. A stepper motor produces maximum torque when the rotor tooth is +-1.8 from the currently energized phase of the stator. Under normal conditions, the motor runs...
• Oceanic probes float free -- thanks to a brush-dc motor
  specific depth is as easy as controlling the amount of oil in the bladder. As oil is practically noncompressible, flotation control can be maintained over any depth. The piston pump in the Optimare float is handled by a 26-W dc micromotor and compact drive from Faulhaber Corp. The motor drives...
• The basics of pneumatic control valves
  have a pneumatic motor coupled to a right angle gear drive that I want to use to lift the head of the saw up and down. The gear box has a gear reduction of 20 to 1 and I need to lift the head up , or lower it to an exact position, usually in increments of 1, 2, or 4 inches. It is better due...
• Proper Training, Protective Gear, and Design Essential to Mower Safety
  work itself loose under motor vibrations or travel over uneven ground. When the rod was not properly installed, it rubbed against the mower body. A 1-in.-long strip of rust where paint had rubbed away indicated this was. Proper Training, Protective Gear, and Design Essential to Mower Safety | Machine...
• Motion Control Drives Infusion Pump
  for the pump's size constraints. Above all, it had to be efficient. "Using a mathematical model, we homed in on the best gear ratio, the best speed and then picked the appropriate motor and gear ratios to meet those criteria," says Loughnane. They chose a 13-mm-diameter, 31-mm-long servo motor from MICROMO...
• Lower Control Voltages Reduce Shock Hazard
  Motor controllers running on 24 Vdc, such as the Cutler-Hammer Intelligent Technologies (IT) Soft Starter, weigh only 9 lb and can fit inside an 18-in. motor-control center. The bypass contactor and the overload relay are integrated into the controller, saving panel space and wiring costs...
• The perfect marriage of Gears and Motors
  are 90-mm frame size with a 10:1 helical gear ratio and a 1.5-in. stack. Operating speed is 3,000 rpm. Results show the integrated gearmotor has a lower temperature regardless of output torque. Electromechanical motion-control systems are typically configured with parts from different suppliers. Users often...
