Small Integrated Servo Breaks 1HP Barrier

By Design World Staff | March 27, 2009



Santa Clara, CA – Animatics Corporation announces the latest release in their OEM Series of SmartMotors‚â„¢, the new SM3416DT-PLS2‚â„¢. The SM3416DT-PLS2 features an innovative new 8-pole, segmented stator design with higher copper filling factor compared to conventional techniques and the new design achieves a higher energy density as well as better efficiency that results in more torque capacity. This technology now packs greater than 800 Watts peak power, over 1 HP into the popular cube-shaped Integrated Servo. Also added to the design is a more advanced registration function for particularly demanding packaging and labeling applications.

The OEM Series SmartMotor‚â„¢ is a complete, programmable, motion control system that is known for being compact, user friendly, and cost-effective. Using a patented design, SmartMotors incorporate a Servo Motor, Amplifier, Encoder and Motion Controller into the same integral frame.


Similar to other members of the OEM Series of SmartMotors, SM3416DT-PLS2 is unique by virtue of its extreme low cost and high continuous and peak output torques. It delivers as much as 480 oz-in of peak torque while maintaining over 200 oz-in of continuous torque with a maximum speed capability of over 5,000rpm. The entire line of OEM Series SmartMotors‚â„¢ is priced competitively for high volume, OEM applications. Featuring standard NEMA 34 frame dimensions, the SM3416DT-PLS2 will meet unique customer requirements with a very familiar package.
