Functional Features:

  • Integrated absolute encoder eliminates homing sequence on power-up
  • Convex shaft provides positive mechanical lock for pulleys, gears, and couplings — no slip under high torque
  • Ultraslim form factor enables installation in space-constrained applications
  • Low cogging torque design for smooth motion at low speeds
  • Pre-assembled cable harness with M12 or flying lead connector options

Material Composition:

  • Stator: Silicon steel laminations (0.35 mm thickness), copper windings (Class F enamel)
  • Rotor: Neodymium-Iron-Boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets, sintered
  • Housing: Anodized aluminum alloy (6061-T6)
  • Shaft: Hardened stainless steel (AISI 420)
  • Bearings: Sealed ball bearings (lubricated for life)

Applicable Industries:

  • Pick-and-place machines
  • Laboratory automation
  • Medical diagnostic equipment
  • 3D printers
  • Small-format CNC routers
  • Vision inspection systems

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount using M3 screws into a Ø40 mm mounting flange pattern
  • Align shaft coupling within 0.05 mm TIR (Total Indicated Runout)
  • Do not apply axial or radial loads exceeding 100 N / 50 N respectively
  • Use flexible coupling to absorb misalignment

Usage Notes:

  • The convex shaft requires a matching keyway in the coupling hub
  • IP65 rating is maintained only when the shaft seal is properly installed — do not remove the seal
  • Do not exceed 6,000 RPM continuous speed
