Ø22mm Low-cog DC Micromotor with Graphite Commutation

By Kathleen Zipp | April 5, 2007

Clearwater, Florida – Micro-Drives announces the expansion of its DC Micromotor product line with the addition of its Series M2232U. The low-cog DC micromotor has an external motor-diameter of 22mm and a length of 32mm. A combination of skewed laminations and a tapered permanent magnet system gives the low-cog rotation. The DC micromotor can achieve a stall torque of 25.62 mNm and speeds to 10,000 rpm.

The DC micromotor comes in 2 versions, each with graphite commutation that ensures long-life even under overload conditions. The Series M2232U GS has a cantilevered brush system, while the Series M2232U CS has a cartridge brush system for even longer life applications. The 2.0mm diameter motor shaft guarantees high rotational stability.

The Series M2232U DC Micromotor can be combined with a gearhead, encoder, and linear actuator for a complete miniature DC drive system. Plastic and metal planetary gearheads are available in 22mm diameter with various reduction ratios with an output torque to 600 mNm. The 2 channel magnetic encoders precisely control speed and direction of rotation, as well as the positioning of the drive shaft.

Series M2232U motors with 6, 12, and 24V windings are immediately available from stock with a 24 to 48 hour turnaround. Samples are available as well.
