The EDGE Motor’s modular design includes a flexible flat vinyl cable assembly with two 1.35 mm diameter mounting holes and mounting pins for simple integration into a suitable bearing structure with linear encoder or other position feedback device. The durable motor is rated for industrial applications with a temperature range of – 20 to + 60 oC and is well suited to non magnetic environments. Servo motor control is provided via a compact ASIC-based driver which is compatible with Nanomotion motion controllers and most analogue interfaced (+/- 10 V) motion controllers from Heason Technology’s wide range.
Servo motion is guaranteed both smooth and precise over a wide dynamic velocity range with positioning resolution better than 100 nanometres, making the EDGE motor suitable for ultra-low speed scanning appplications. Unlike standard rotary micro motors, the technology has a unique inherent holding force, effectively braking and maintaining motor position at standstill and under power-off conditions – with complete stability and zero drift.
