New hollow-shaft direct-drive torque motors from NUM

摘要

CNC specialist NUM, which has a UK subsidiary in Coventry (www.num.com), has expanded its portfolio of motors for machine tool applications by launching a range of high-performance brushless torque motors. Featuring "optimised magnetics", the new TMX-series direct-drive motors have a very low cogging torque - said to be almost half that of competitors' motors. They have been designed for applications that demand very smooth and accurate rotation, especially at low speeds; typical uses include direct-drive machine tools, rotary tables and radial positioning units.
