Feedback Options (Customer-Mounted): Compatible with Kollmorgen 63032 Series Single-Turn Absolute Encoder, Hiperface DSL, Incremental Encoder (1024 lines/rev minimum)
Key Features:
- Frameless design enables direct integration into customer mechanical structure — zero backlash, zero coupling losses
- Ironless stator delivers zero cogging torque for sub-microradian smoothness
- Ultra-low rotor inertia (1.9 g·cm²) for highest bandwidth direct-drive applications
- B3 flange provides rigid, repeatable mounting for precision rotary stages
- Continuous torque rated at 25°C case temperature — derate linearly above 25°C at 0.8%/°C
Applicable Industries: Optical Gimbals, Antenna Pointing, Semiconductor Wafer Stages, Surgical Robots, Space Mechanisms, Gimbal Stabilization
Installation Requirements:
- Press-fit motor into customer housing bore with interference fit of 0.01–0.025 mm
- B3 flange bolts: 4x M3 x 0.5, torque to 0.5 Nm
- Mount encoder directly on motor shaft using collet or set-screw hub (6 mm bore typical)
- Ensure thermal path from motor case to heatsink for continuous operation above 1 A
Usage Notes:
- Do not exceed 48 VDC — insulation breakdown will occur
- Bearing selection is customer responsibility; recommended: angular contact ceramic hybrid bearings (e.g., Si3N4 balls)
- Do not apply axial load directly to shaft — use thrust bearing at non-drive end
