IntroductionHoused direct drive motors integrate stator, rotor, bearings, encoder and housing into a single unit designed for straightforward installation and alignment. Compared with motor-plus-gearbox solutions, they simplify mechanical transmission, improve positioning accuracy and dynamic response, and reduce maintenance and installation footprint.
Key features- Absolute encoder option: position known immediately after power-on; single-turn resolution up to 540,672 pulses.
- High-precision positioning: typical accuracy up to ±30 arcsec (some models ±15 arcsec); repeatability up to ±5 arcsec.
- Hollow shaft and mounting features: mounting grooves and threaded holes on rotating and stationary sections; hollow shaft enables centralized cable routing.
- High torque density: compact design able to drive relatively large loads at high speeds.
- Multiple cam/motion profiles supported: Modified Sine (MS), Modified Trapezoidal (MT), MCMC1, Trapezoidal-Sine (TR).
- Dust-protected options and IP65 variants: selected models provide sealed rotating section.
- No additional lubrication required and energy-efficient behavior when stopped.
Integration & control- Supports open communication protocols (e.g., CC-Link, DeviceNet) to reduce wiring and simplify integration.
- Driver, motor and cables can be configured with interchangeable components for modular maintenance.
- Operating parameters programmable via programming terminal or PC to adapt motion profiles and application-specific settings.
