High performance drive in a small package
Maxon's smallest DC brushless motor is only 4mm in diameter and comes in two different lengths. Certified in accordance with ISO 13485, the new brushless micro drive is said to be ideal for medical applications.
>The EC 4 brushless DC motor is the smallest to come from Maxon Motor, and is available in power ratings of 0.5 and 1W. Equipped with an ironless core Maxon winding, the EC 4 offers a robust design, high power density and high energy efficiency.
>Combined with the GP 4 planetary gearhead, Maxon says the EC 4 becomes a compact drive for use in micropumps, analytic and diagnostic devices, and laboratory robots. Precise and reliable, it can adjust lenses, dispense fluids or position sensing devices. All units meet the ISO 13458 medical standard, making them ideal for applications in medical technology.
