Oriental Motor Announces AXH Series of Mini-Brushless DC Motor and Driver Packages
Oriental Motor USA Corp. (Torrance, CA) announced the new AXH Series of 30W (2.36" sq.) and 50W (3.15" sq.) mini-brushless dc motor and board-level driver packages. Oriental Motor claims that the AXH motor in both has been reduced in volume by approximately 55 percent when compared to conventional equivalent-power ac induction speed control motors.
The AXH Series motor and driver package consists of a speed feedback system, a brushless DC motor, a driver and a potentiometer. It is capable of providing speed regulation of ±1 percent maximum over a 25:1 speed range (100rpm to 2500rpm). The packages are UL and CUL approved. The 30W round shaft model, the AXH230K-A, achieves a constant torque of 16.9 ounce-inches, while the 50W model, the AXH450K-A, provides 28.3 ounce-inches.
The AXH Series motors are also available with pre-assembled gearheads. The maximum gearmotor continuous torque reaches up to 53.1 pound-inches for the AXH230K models and up to 141.6 pound-inches for the larger AXH450K models. The motor leads are protected by a cable for safety.
The AXH Series is equipped with control protection functions including
overload currents, over-voltage, under-voltage, over-speed and out-of-phase power. When an abnormality is detected, the LED indicator blinks, an alarm signals and the motor is stopped.
