Automation for convenience, reliability and safety
Mechatronic automation would be unthinkable without precisely matched drive technology. Convenience, reliability and safety are immediately invalidated as soon as the drive system does not meet the respective technical requirements. So there are always two sides to the adaptations - either adaptation of the drive technology or the application.
Adaptation of the motor to the application
- The winding of the motor is modified to influence the torque or rotation speed or to reduce the current.
- The drive shaft is modified by introducing a keyway, spline or serration on the shaft.
- The motor is given a different sensor or encoder to adapt the number of pulses to the existing controls.
- Modification of the motors by adding shafts, encoders, etc., as we already offer some modified motors.
Adaptation of the application to the motor
- Reduction of the output speed by the customer in order to be able to use a motor from a less expensive large series. For example, a sprocket with 48 teeth can be reduced to a sprocket with 44 teeth almost cost-neutrally in order to use a large series motor with 60 rpm instead of a 70 rpm motor that is no longer available.
- Instead of an output sprocket with a keyway to transmit the torque, a sprocket with internal splines or external splines can be used in order to use a less expensive high-volume motor.
