Single-Reduction Right-Angle “6RX” Gearmotors Fit in Tight Spaces
Available with three different permanent magnet DC motor options, the 6RX gearmotors are ideal for a range of industrial and mobility applications that require a very narrow gearhead. The 6RX gearhead is offered with our 37A and 42A PMDC motors and various high- and low-voltage winding options (12,24,90,130 and 180 VDC). The gearmotors are availableVIEW
Choosing the Right Gearmotor for Your Application
What is a gearmotor? A gearmotor consists of a small motor designed specifically with an integrated gear reducer (gearhead). The end shield on the drive end of the motor provides a dual function. The side facing the motor provides the armature/rotor bearing support and a sealing provision through which the integral rotor or armature shaftVIEW
Introduction to Fractional Horsepower Gearmotors – Tom’s Toolbox (Mi)
This video provides answers to questions like: What is a gearmotor? Why use FHP gearmotors? We talk about some of their main features and benefits, and we review the most common gearing and gearhead styles: parallel shaft, right angle, and planetary (center shaft) gearmotors.VIEW
Bodine Electric Gearmotors and Speed Controls
From our recent photo shoot: Bodine type 42R-GB/H, Hollow Shaft, AC 3-phase, Inverter Duty gearmotor, our type 24A4-P, 24VDC and 42A-FX, PMDC gearmotors. System matched to our selection of AC and PMDC motor speed controls – offered as chassis boards, NEMA-1 or NEMA-4. When a gearmotor and control are purchased as a set, enjoy ourVIEW
New DC Motor Speed Control with Dynamic Braking
Our new stock control, model 0794, features a Forward-Brake-Reverse (FBR) switch for dynamic braking. The new control is ideal for use in bi-directional applications such as conveyors, packaging machines, screen-printing equipment, food processing applications, medical devices, lab instrumentation and labeling equipment. Housed in a NEMA 1/IP-20 enclosure, the new model 0794 provides smooth speed control for PMDCVIEW
Senior ME Design Team wins Purdue Mallot Award for “P.E.T.”
We want to congratulate the “Purdue Prop Pullers” for their success with their Fall 2013 senior design project! P.E.T. is a portable electric tow-bar for a small plane. The purpose of this device is to enable the pilot to pull his/her plane short distances around a hangar with minimal effort. The team’s objective was toVIEW
Advantages and Disadvantages of Planetary Gearmotors
We design all our standard parallel shaft (helical or helical/spur) and right angle (worm or helical/worm) gearboxes in-house, and all gearheads are manufactured and assembled in our main factory in Iowa. Occasionally, we’ll receive a request to mate one of our standard AC, DC or BLDC motors to a planetary gearhead. To identify the best gearmotor option for our customer’sVIEW
