Closed loop motion control to work in hazards
Brushless dustproof motors/resolvers form a single rugged and reliable component suitable for hostile environments that, when combined with a drive system, are ideal for closed-loop motion control.
Typical applications include wood, wood products, flour production, plastics machining, and graphite fiber production.
For more unique and demanding applications, Dustproof Motors can be combined with radiation hardened, waterproof and extended temperature environmental options.
Dustproof Motors are pressure rated to 15 psi to lock out contamination.
They include seals that eliminate dust leaks at penetration points and provide features for pressurization.
An extended temperature option provides insulation that allows operation at temperatures up to 145degC.
Dustproof Motors are available in industry standard 23, 34, 42 and 65 frame sizes.
