The TPM+ servo actuator is comprised of a high precision gearhead, a high-pole motor and feedback all integrated into a single package. Because the actuator concept eliminates any extra components, the size and mass have been reduced by 50% as compared to a standard motor and gearbox combination. This small size and mass makes the torque density of the TPM+ the best in its class. The high level of integration of the TPM+ has more benefits than just reduced size.
This new concept in actuator design eliminates the additional rotating parts that are used in a conventional solution, i.e. additional bearings, couplings, and larger shafts, decreasing the amount of inertia of the actuator. The source of power in an electromechanical solution, the magnets, is moved closer to the load which improves stiffness and results in higher dynamics. These characteristics, combined with the small mass and volume, make the TPM+ the best solution when an actuator with high torque density is needed.
