Applimotion recently introduced a direct drive, precision servo motor system in a compact NEMA 23 footprint. The rotary stage is a customizable, hollow shaft direct drive motor system with a precision encoder and bearings in a convenient NEMA 23 compatible package.

OEMs typically design Applimotion ULT, UTH, UTS, and UTO frameless motor kits into unique direct drive systems. With the introduction of this precision servo system, automation and OEM engineers can add a hollow shaft precision stage and realize the precise positioning and smooth motion that this direct drive system offers, all in the disguise of a typical NEMA 23 motor. To ease implementation, options for a range of effective encoder resolutions are available as well as choices between Applimotion’s higher torque ULT or ultra-smooth UTS slotless motor technologies.
