High-inertia Servo Motors

Jan. 23, 2008
Designed for demanding high-performance servo applications, MaxPlus-J (MPJ) motors offer the same design specifications as the vendor’s MPP (MaxPlusPlus) motors but give users higher inertia.

The MPJ’s inertia boost comes from its special inertia flywheel, which adds from three to 10 times the inertia of a standard MPP servo motor. This flywheel replaces the more expensive gearbox the vendor traditionally added to the motor for applications where the customer has a high load-to-rotor inertia mismatch. Now, on these applications, users can simply use an MPJ motor, saving money and eliminating the speed constraints normally associated with a gearhead. MPJ motors are available in sizes 92, 100, 115 and 142, with continuous torque ranging from 1.3Nm (12lb-in) to 20Nm (173lb-in).
