Allied Motion Expands Line of Frameless MegafluxTM Direct Drive Torque Motors
Smaller sizes added to accommodate wider range of OEM applications
Amherst, NY - September 2017 - Allied Motion Technologies announces the addition of smaller frame sizes to its line of MegafluxTM Frameless Direct Drive Torque Motors. Motors are now available in sizes ranging from 60 to 792 mm in outside diameter, with multiple stack lengths for each diameter.
Brushless torque motors are designed to produce high torque values compared to standard brushless motors. They have higher pole-counts, much thinner axial dimensions, larger diameters than typical motors, and are designed to run at low-to-moderate speed. Being frameless, Megaflux kit motors (consisting of a matched rotor and stator pair) are ideally suited for OEM designs where they can be integrated directly into the driven axis. A large open-center aperture provides free passage to route cables, light beams or other machine mechanics. Megaflux frameless torque motors are the ideal integrated solution for OEM designs, including semiconductor manufacturing equipment, robot base, shoulder and joint axes, machine tool spindle drives, telescope and antenna stabilized gimbal platforms, to name a few.
The Megaflux family of high-performance direct drive frameless brushless torque comprises twelve frame diameters each with five stack heights. The wide selection of sizes ensures that standard models will meet most OEM application needs, but customized versions are a specialty at Allied Motion.
Megaflux highlights include:
• 12 standard frame sizes from 60 to 792 mm (2.4 to 31.2 in) outside diameter
• Continuous stall torque from 0.3 up to 2020 Nm (1490 lb-ft)
• Clear ID aperture from 36.2 up to 582 mm (22.9 in)
• Three winding designs: 48, 150, and 300 VDC

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.
