Maxon Adds Dynamism to Robotic Servo Motors

Advanced Compact Motors and Gearheads for High-Performance Robotics

Electromate, one of Canada’s premier distributors of motion control solutions, is proud to announce the release of maxon’s EC Frameless DT50 Motor and ECX Flat Series DC Motors and Gearheads, designed to meet the demands of modern robotics and automation systems. The EC and ECX Series motors and gearheads offer compact, efficient drive systems with exceptional torque and power density, making them ideal for applications requiring precise motion control.

Key Products in the EC Series: · EC Frameless DT50 Motor: Designed for rapid speed transitions in collaborative robots and exoskeletons. The DT50 motor features a large hollow shaft and compact design, optimized for integration into custom robotic systems. The DT50 effortlessly reaches a nominal torque of over 500 mNm at a nominal speed of 4,000 rpm. · ECX Flat Motor Series: These motors are recognized for their power density and compact form factor, making them ideal for space-constrained applications. The ECX Flat iron-wound motors are available with diameters of 22 mm, 32 mm, and 42 mm each and in short or long versions. The short versions are just 14 mm, 16 mm, or 21 mm in length.

Both motor series are complemented by maxon’s precision gearheads, which ensure smooth torque transmission and minimal backlash—critical for applications requiring high precision and dynamic movement.

Modular Design for Easy Configuration

The modular nature of maxon’s drive systems allows for easy integration with other maxon components, offering engineers flexibility and scalability for their projects. Whether used in lightweight mobile robots or industrial pick-and-place systems, the ECX Series ensures high dynamic performance and energy efficiency, allowing engineers to optimize their robotic systems for maximum output.

Product Highlights:
  • High Power Density in a Compact Design
  • Precision Torque Transmission with Minimal Backlash
  • Efficiency Ratings up to 86%
  • Modular Design for Seamless Integration
  • Proven Reliability in Harsh Environments
