High-efficiency Stepping Motors

Use of new materials, advanced stator and rotor design and construction methods enable the PKE stepping motors to produce 1.2 to 1.5 times more torque than a conventional stepping motor, while significantly reducing the power loss common in stepping motors, says the vendor. Key benefits of the higher efficiency are said to be lower heat generation (78%) by the motor, constant duty operation and up to 40% less power consumption when compared to a conventional stepping motor. The PKE stepping motor is available with a motor frame size of 1.65 in. sq and three stack lengths of 1.3 in. (PKE243x), 1.54 in. (PKE244x) and 1.85 in. (PKE245x). Output torque ranges from 34 oz-in for the PKE243A-L with unipolar winding up to 77.8 oz-in for the PKE245DA-L bipolar winding motor.Oriental Motor USA Corp.www.orientalmotor.com800.468.3982
