Applied Motion Products has launched its M5 Servo Series, boasting advancements in machine performance, torque, and precision control. The series is tailored to enhance a wide array of robots, including robotic arms and medical robots, by providing options for diverse applications. The company’s innovation emphasizes the versatility and adaptability of the new servo motors and drives to different robotic needs.
Enhanced Torque and Customization Options
The M5 series presents a spectrum of servo motors with frame sizes from 40 to 130mm and power ranging from 100W to 3kW. These motors can deliver a high continuous torque of up to 11.5 Nm. The design incorporates various gear types, such as planetary with helical gears, and offers several output types, including straight shaft and flange mounts. Applied Motion Products underlines its flexibility by offering customized options to meet specific client requirements.
Performance and Safety at the Core
Don Macleod, CEO of Applied Motion Products, highlights that the M5 series integrates swift dynamic response, advanced safety features, and extensive industrial network options. These features combine to set a new standard for performance and cost-efficiency. This focus on safety is further demonstrated by the M5 Servo Drives’ compatibility with various high-resolution encoders and support for dynamic braking, E-Stop, and other safety functions.
The accompanying software contributes to the series’ performance by facilitating auto-tuning, multi-axis tuning, and error reduction during different movement phases. Adaptive algorithms play a significant role in minimizing errors caused by mechanical variations such as load changes and external forces. These functionalities underscore the company’s commitment to delivering precise and reliable motion control.
Applied Motion Products, established in 1978, strengthened its market position through a joint venture with Moons’ Shanghai in 2014. This collaboration with the motion control and intelligent lighting leader has afforded Applied Motion Products enhanced supply chain reliability and expanded manufacturing capabilities, providing customers with integrated solutions.
The M5 Servo Series represents a significant step forward in the company’s product offerings, promising to elevate the capabilities of robotics across various industries.
