Our Visit to PackExpo Chicago – October 2018

Always fun to visit PackExpo and to see new gearmotor applications: Conveyors are exhibited in all sizes and shapes. Some are powered by parallel shaft gearmotors, others are powered by right-angle or hollow shaft gearmotors. Both AC and PMDC variable speed and fixed speed… AC Inverters = VFDs = Variable Speed Drives… And our friends

New “SCR Rated” Stock Gearmotors Now Available!

In response to the obsolescence of the Baldor-Reliance fractional horsepower (FHP) gearmotor line, we are excited to announce the addition of (80) new 90V and 180VDC gearmotors that are fully compatible with unfiltered SCR speed controls. The gearmotors feature SCR rated windings that run at 2500 RPM armature speed at 90V or 180VDC respectively. The

New Planetary PMDC Gearmotors Provide up to Twice the Torque!

New Planetary PMDC Gearmotors Provide up to Twice the Torque!

We are excited to introduce our new type 24A4-60P planetary gearmotors. This integral gearmotor design combines our high-performance type 24A PMDC motor with the all-new 60P (60mm) planetary gearhead. It is ideal for applications that require higher torque than conventional helical/spur gearheads of a similar size can provide, and where very low backlash gearhead is

What is a Synchronous AC Motor? Hysteresis- and Reluctance-Type Designs

The difference between the speed of the rotating magnetic field of an induction motor (which is always synchronous) and the speed of the rotor is known as “slip.” When the rotor design enables it to “lock into step” with the field, the slip is reduced to zero and the motor is said to run...
