Without drive technology - in the truest sense of the word - nothing would turn in most machines and systems. Computer&AUTOMATION presents the latest innovations in this automation discipline in a series of pictures.

The BHx series from Faulhaber are gapless, brushless high-performance motors in 2-pole technology with a diameter of 16 mm. The motors are particularly suitable for demanding applications such as dental handpieces, medical robotics systems and electric grippers as well as laboratory equipment, professional hand tools or robotics. The series is available in two different motor versions, both of which have a length of 60 mm. The 1660...BHS series achieves speeds of up to 100,000 min-1 and delivers an output of 96 W. It is ideal for devices that run over a long period of time and where the housing temperature must be kept low, for example for hand tools with high speeds. In addition, the 1660...BHT series delivers a continuous output torque of just under 19 mNm and can also handle variable loads. At 95 min-1/mNm, the extremely flat speed-torque characteristic curve helps to minimize speed fluctuations and thus ensures a constant speed and smooth running. For special applications, the motor can generate a pulse torque of over 30 mNm. The motors in the family can be combined with high-resolution magnetic encoders, planetary gearboxes and controllers from the supplier's portfolio.
