Feldkirchen, November 2013 – The BLDC motor ASB87 from Nanotec Electronic was developed specifically for rugged environments. The 3-phase motor with a size of 87mm (Nema 34) is IP65-rated except for the shaft exit, it has a built-in 1024 CPR magnetic encoder. Complete IP65 rating with shaft seal is available for OEM customers upon request. With this model, Nanotec Electronic offers yet another series of reliable, IP-protected BLDC motors in addition to the tried-and-tested ASB42, which has a size of 42mm. The magnetic incremental encoder is built into the housing and is insensitive to rugged industrial environments on account of its design. The fact that this encoder does not require additional hall sensors enhances its reliability. The reference signal is synchronous to the hall phase for even more exact positioning. Its maximum speed is 3000rpm with a nominal output of 250watts. Its peak torque is 2Nm all in a very compact 129mm total length. Nanotec will be presenting the ASB87 in addition to other new products in the fields of control technology and brushless DC servo motors at the SPS in Nürnberg, hall 4, booth 582.
