MOTORS & GEARS

WE OFFER A COMPLETE RANGE OF AC, BRUSHLESS, DC & STEPPER MOTORS FROM LEADING MANUFACTURERS IN EUROPE & ASIA Power range from 1W up to 1kW (1/3 phase 24-415 Va.c & 3-120 Vd.c), motors are available with a range of inline or right-angled gearboxes to fit the technical performance required. We also supply accessories such as encoders and brakes to suit the application needs.

The motor range offers specific solutions for low noise applications and aggressive environmental conditions using stainless steel motors with protection up to IP69K. With the close partnerships built over many years with our manufacturers, we can provide options ranging from standard off the shelf solutions through to a full custom designs bespoke for your applications.

AC MOTORS Our range of AC motors include both asynchronous & synchronous technologies. Single phase AC motors are suitable for on/off fixed speed applications whereas inverter driven three phase AC motors are more suited where control of speed or soft start is required. Suitable for applications such as conveyors where service life & durability are prioritised.

BRUSHLESS MOTORS Our range of brushless motors include both inner & outer rotor technologies. Electronic rather than mechanical commutation provides a long service life. Due to higher efficiency & stronger magnets a brushless motor will offer higher torque & power output when compared with a AC or DC motor of a comparable size. Suitable for applications such as labelling machinery, where accurate control is required over speed & position.

DC MOTORS Our DC motor range comprises standard ferrite magnet motors or rare earth magnets for higher power density. Ideal for short & intensive operations where a low voltage DC power source is available. DC motors are easy to control with a PWM drive. Suitable for battery powered and portable device applications.

STEPPER MOTORS Our range of stepper motors includes both 2 & 3 phase hybrid motors and NEMA linear actuators.

Open loop speed and position are easily controlled using a pulse train from a controller. Typically used in machinery where low speed, high torque and positioning are prioritised without the need of a gearbox.

LINEAR & MECHANICAL COMPLEMENTING OUR MOTOR, GEAR MOTOR AND DRIVE OPTIONS, WE OFFER A BROAD RANGE OF LINEAR AND MECHANICAL PRODUCTS FROM LEADING MANUFACTURERS Solenoids and electromagnets, either standard or customer specific designs, alongside linear actuators shorter than 50mm with 20mm stroke up to screw jacks that can move stadiums, the range of powered linear products available from OEM Automatic covers many application needs.

The number one in their field, THK, incorporate all aspects of mechanical linear guidance and support, with the full range being available.

With supporting products from Sungil for couplings and iBec for bearings, there is something for everyone in the Linear and Mechanical products from OEM.

LINEAR ACTUATORS From a miniature Actuonix actuator – 50mm long with 20mm stroke, up to a fully bespoke unit capable of lifting many tonnes, our comprehensive range of linear actuators covers a vast range of applications.

LINEAR MOTION THK - the number one name in the world for linear guides - produce high quality, high precision, low friction guides from a 3mm to 100mm rail width. Combined with ball screws, splines, guided actuators and components for industrial robots – THK are the complete solution.

SOLENOIDS AND ELECTROMAGNETS With 20+ years in the design and manufacture of solenoids and electromagnets, Nafsa have a large range of products available as standard builds and produce custom or full bespoke units for higher volume customers.

COUPLINGS AND BEARINGS Oldham, jaw, zero backlash, servo and flexible couplings with machined to order shaft connections and bearings manufactured to known standards and part numbers. All at highly competitive prices for larger volume customers.

DRIVE ELECTRONICS WE OFFER A COMPLETE RANGE OF MOTOR DRIVES & MOTORS WITH INTEGRATED DRIVES FROM LEADING MANUFACTURERS IN EUROPE & ASIA Most applications need some type of motor control to achieve the correct protection & required performance. Our range extends from a cost-effective drive for speed control, current limiting & direction control to more advanced intelligent motor control with integrated motion controller. The more advanced drives have the ability to communicate on different network protocols such as EtherCAT or CANopen.

Working closely with the customer & our specialised manufacturers to identify the full application requirements, we can supply a fully customised bespoke solution as well as standard off the shelf products.

SPEED, TORQUE & POSITION CONTROL Our range of speed, torque & position drives up to 4.2 kW are suitable for controlling DC, brushless & stepper motor technologies in most applications. General control functions include PWM speed control, controlled direction change, current limiting, acceleration/deceleration ramps & positional pulse counting. Used predominately for single axis standalone applications with the drive functions controlled via switches or PLC input.

PRECISE & REPEATABLE POSITIONAL CONTROL

MOTORS WITH INTEGRATED CONTROL

Our range of intelligent motor drives up to 1.6 kW are suitable for controlling DC, brushless, linear & stepper motors all from the same drive. The drive combines both servo drive & motion controller in one unit for a highly programmable solution. Used for precise & repeatable positional control using feedback from an encoder. Single axis or multi axis operation, the drive can operate from preprogrammed motion sequences or as a slave on a master network with communication protocols such as EtherCAT or CANopen.

Our range includes brushless, stepper and AC with built-in inverter and brushless motors with high resolution encoders & programming positioning drivers controlled on a bus network. Combining the motor & drive into one unit is an ideal solution for standalone or multi-axis applications where compactness, reduced cabling & intelligence are required such as factory AGVs.

BESPOKE SOLUTIONS

WHEN A STANDARD PRODUCT DOES NOT QUITE FIT THE BILL, OUR PROJECT HANDLING PROCESS OFFERS A UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL SOLUTION MEETING TECHNICAL AND COMMERCIAL REQUIREMENTS From within our own dedicated modern workshops, our engineers can offer added value adaptations such as customer specific motor cable & connectors, mechanical or electronic assemblies to customer specification, all locally supported, tested & quality controlled.

Our product specialists have close partnerships with manufacturers. We make use of their deep knowledge and experience to offer basic adaptations to standard products through to complete special designs for a fully bespoke factory produced technical & physical solution tailored as per customers’ specific application requirements.
