Automation with stepper motors, direct current motors and EC/BLDC motors

For linear axes and handling systems, igus® offers a wide range of electric motors. Hybrid stepper motors or direct-current motors are used in lead screw drives, toothed belts and rack and pinion drives.

The electric motors complete igus®'s offer of automation technology. That way, entire handling systems can be configured in combination with linear axes.

Gear boxes

The gear boxes of the drylin® E series convince due to their low radial clearance, quiet operation, high drive torque and 96% efficiency.

• igus® stepper motors NEMA23 and 34
• Higher holding torque of a brake
• 2 installation sizes
• Reduction of 3 & 5 available

Couplings

The coupling connects the drive pin of the axis to the motor. An elastic polymer insert in the centre of the coupling transfers the motor torque. This dampening element compensates for radial and axial clearance.

• With square or round housing
• Temperature range from -30°C up to +100°C
• Shore hardness 98 Sh A
