July 16, 2007 - Parvalux announces a new range of DC brushed motors fitted with planetary gearheads. Designed for a huge range of diverse industrial applications, the range provides tremendous output torque at incredibly competitive prices. In this way, the product will appeal to machine and product designers who want reliability that doesn’t compromise their profitability. The compact and efficient range consists of six DC brushed motors providing an output torque from 0.05 Nm to 30 Nm and output speeds from 3 rpm to 863 rpm.
Motor diameter is 38 mm through to 71 mm allowing use in small areas.Manufactured from a die-cast aluminium housing, the motors utilise a conventional long-life brush gear coupled with strong ferrite magnets for trouble free operation. With a “sealed for life” gearbox, the combined unit is ready for installation immediately, and so reliable that it requires no maintenance. Available in 12v or 24v as standard, Parvalux are able to provide customised variations upon request.
