Expanding its offerings of synchronous motors, HEIDENHAIN Corporation introduces the new QSY 260B and QSY 260C EcoDyn series of servo motors with stall torque of 85.0 Nm and 120.0 Nm, respectively. Of particular use on machine tools, these HEIDENHAIN motors provide low torque ripple which guarantee high speed stability and positioning accuracy, resulting in parts with superior surface quality.

With these new HEIDENHAIN servo motors, a high rotor moment of inertia provides for high maximum acceleration and high load inertia. Common applications for these motors types include large boring mills and other heavy load machining.

Motors of the EcoDyn series are characterized by reduced current consumption together with higher rated torque and a max. permissible rated speed of 3000 min-1.

These motor come standard equipped with either incremental or absolute HEIDENHAIN rotary encoders.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
