Miniature gearmotors for miniature power transmission
Mclennan Servo Supplies has launched a new low cost miniature brushed DC gearmotor from its Italian distribution partner Micro-Motors s.r.l.
The B138F features a durable spur gearbox in a 34 mm diameter moulded plastic housing with three point mounting built-in for straightforward installation. With an overall length of just 37.5 mm, a wide range of standard reduction ratios are available from 12.25:1 to 1470.82:1, with maximum output torque from 1.5 Ncm to 50 Ncm. The sturdy gearmotor boasts a 20 N radial shaft loading with axial shaft load to 5 N. Steel housed gearbox versions are also available for increased application durability.
Available in a choice of 6 or 12 VDC and with VDR interference suppression included, the motor includes precious metal brushes and flying leads for flexible installation. Alternative windings for application optimised performance are also available.
Mclennan has an active stock program for popular ratios and voltage ratings across the range and provide a custom design service to build the B138F into complete mechatronic solutions complete with drives, motion controls and custom designed mechanics.
