September 4, 2008 - Midwest Motion Products of Watertown, Minnesota, released Model No. MMP-PDSF80-12V GS-180-LS DC Gear Motor.
Accepting any 12 Volt DC source, including battery power, this robust Gear Motor measures just 2.8” in Diameter, with a 3.15” Square Gearbox, by 6.2” long, and has a keyed output shaft of 10mm diameter by 27mm long.
Easy mounting is accomplished with 4 M5 threaded screws, equally spaced 66.5mm apart. The output of this reversible gearmotor is rated for 70 in. -lb continuous torque, at 7.2 RPM, and 100 in.
-lb Peak. Despite its compact size, and weight of approximately 4.6 pounds, it’s an efficient design, requiring just 3.9 Amps at 12 Volts DC to generate its Full Load Torque. That translates into long life battery charge, low noise operation, and lower cost drive electronics.
Motor windings for 12, 36, 48 & 90 Volts are available. This unique design is rated at an “IP 52” protection level for operation in harsh environments. Variable Speed can be accomplished with our fully compatible Speed Controls, Model MMP 25A-12V, or MMP 20A-12V-RSP. Samples are available FROM STOCK for rapid prototyping needs. Typical options available from the company include Servo Motors with integral Optical Encoders, Failsafe Brakes, Analog Tachometers, and Planetary Gearheads, with standard ratios ranging from 3:1 to 2653:1, and standard or low backlash precision gearing available.
Motor Winding Options include 12V, 24V, 36V, 48V, 60V and 90 Volts DC. The company offers a variety of standard ancillary equipment including DC power supplies, DC Servomotors, PWM Servo Amplifiers, Motor Speed Controls, Linear Actuators and a wide variety of DC gear-motors. Custom Motor Shaft and mounting configurations are also available.
Typical applications include Battery Operated Motors & E.V. drives, Medical, Mobility / Accessibility products, Robotics & Automation including (Military) Unmanned Guided Vehicles, Semiconductor Processing Equipment, Actuators, Packaging & Labeling Machines, Metalworking Machines, and many other applications requiring precise motion control. Each respondent is eligible to receive a free copy of the MMP “e-Catalog” on CD-ROM.
