The cutting edge of medical micromotors
To help engineers streamline the process of specifying precision motors for medical devices, specialist DC motor supplier Electro Mechanical Systems (EMS) attended Medical Technology Ireland at Galway Racecourse
A
t the event, EMS provided exclusive demonstrations of FAULHABER motors, including the compact and
highly precise brushless DC servo motors from the BX4 series. The BX4 series uses 4-pole technology to
deliver high torque and speed rigidity, while guaranteeing low vibration and noise levels, ideal for medical applications. Motors in the series are available in either 22 mm or 32 mm diameter, with length options ranging from 33.8 mm to 70.2 mm to ensure compatibility with various gearhead and lead screw attachments. Optional analogue Hall sensors enable stable control in surgical robots. presented FAULHABER’s range of miniature DC stepper motors, which can accelerate extremely a constant power supply. FAULHABER offers a huge range of stepper motors, with diameter sizes ranging from 6mm to 66mm and steps per
