SUM-40 Smart Motor by Dynamic Structures And Materials, LLC
Related Technologies:
DSM's Smart Ultrasonic Motor products package a small, high torque piezoelectric motor with integrated amplifier, controller, encoder, and USB Type-C / RS232 communications. This gives the user closed-loop control in a compact package that can be easily implemented into an application to provide precise rotation. This motor uses ultrasonic piezoelectric technology to provide the following advantages:
-High torque direct drive operation that eliminates the need for added gear reduction in many applications.
-A precision ultrasonic motor coupled with a high resolution encoder to provide precise rotary positioning.
-Zero power hold at a torque level higher than the max drive torque, which leads to greatly reduced power consumption in applications that require holding a precise position.
-Zero backlash, which improves overall system precision.
-USB Type-C and RS232 communication provide simple implementation in any application.
-Compact design provides an ideal solution for applications with size and weight restrictions.
-NEMA 17 mounting pattern is provided to simplify integration.
-The ultrasonic nature of the technology provides quiet operation.
-No magnets used in the system. If a fully nonmagnetic version is needed for your application, please contact DSM.
