Slide-in gear motor in aluminum housing with integrated control

The shaft-mounted geared motors of the "Compacta" series from Framo Morat offer a high power density and can be used reliably and flexibly. With the Compacta AG 160 model, the Black Forest drive specialists have once again significantly increased the output per volume unit: it delivers up to 1600 Nm torque, which is only 37,5 x 20 x 11 cm³ large and 13 kg light drive.

Especially in applications in which the installation space is tight, the compact dimensions of the drive simplify the construction and installation considerably. Compared to other gearmotors, it weighs up to 50% less. This was achieved by a consistent application of the aluminum die-casting technology, which at the same time ensures a high degree of rigidity of the gearbox and motor housing. The Compacta drives are extremely robust and durable.

Thanks to the integrated limit switch, the Compacta AG 160 is particularly suitable for applications in reversing operation. Various control variants are available, from simple setting of the end positions and precise positioning using a linear potentiometer to complex motion sequences controlled by a rotary encoder. The fully integrated solution saves costs because there is no need for complex cabling to integrate external position limit switches. There is an option fieldbusinterface (CAN open or Profibus DP) via which up to several hundred drives can be connected to a central controller.
