Ceramic servo motor comes with drive and control ASIC

Nanomotion has introduced its new Edge motor, one of the smallest ceramic servo motors in the industrial market. The Edge motor provides 30 grams of thrust with a maximum operating velocity of 150 mm/sec. Capable of driving linear or rotary motion, the EDGE is well suited for applications in the aerospace & military, medical devices, and industrial automation sectors.

The Edge motor weighs 0.6 grams and operates at 8 Vrms. It is supported by Nanomotion’s dual-axis ASIC, which provides drive and control functions. The Edge motor is ideal for shutter/aperture control, small medical pumps, grippers, and other devices.

 

Nanomotion is a subsidiary of Johnson Electric, one of the world's largest providers of micro motors and integrated motor systems to global customers in the automotive, power tools, home appliances, business equipment, audio-visual and personal care sectors.
