Maxon launches powerful motor for robotics

171207_MaxonSeveral different versions of the high-torque, brushless EC-i motors from Maxon Motor are now also available in small diameters. The company says these new motors are perfect for applications in robotics.

With the EC-i 30, drive specialist Maxon Motor is introducing a new brushless DC motor (BLDC). It has a diameter of 30mm and is therefore smaller than the EC-i 40 currently available. Like its predecessors, this motor stands out for its high dynamics, low cogging torque, and high torque. It is available in two lengths, each in a Standard and a High Torque version, with a maximum nominal torque of up to 110mNm at 75W.

Despite their impressive performance, EC-i 30 DC motors are a cost-effective alternative to existing drives. Because of this and their compact design, they are especially suitable for applications in robotics.

In all versions, the new EC-i 30 motors can be expanded with encoders, gearheads, servo controllers, or positioning controllers from Maxon Motor – easily and conveniently in the Maxon online shop.
