ebm-papst: Individually configurable drives with a diameter of 42 mm:

Next-generation drive kit.

Different performances, transmission designs and support levels, drives with and without encoders, industry-oriented connection technology, protection type IP 54: The construction kit for drives with 42 mm diameter (ECI-42) by ebm papst will allow users in the future to Putting together the right solution individually by combining different modules.

Customizable drives The drive specialist ebm-papst St. Georgen has completely redesigned its ECI-42 kit: The individually configurable drives with 42 mm diameter and IP54 protection type will now also be equipped with magnetic incremental devices ( Resolution 12 bit) and industrial-grade plugs offered for simple electrical connectivity. The radial angle plug with bayonet closure can be rotated and automatically snaps in. An axith-critical plug module is available for space-critical applications – a ready-made cable connection is also possible.

42 mm drive as the heart of the kit

The "heart" of all configurations is a brushless, electronically commuted inner runner engine with a diameter of 42 mm and a stator length of 20 or 40 mm. It achieves power of around 45 and 90 watts respectively at 110 and 220 mNm nominal speed and 4,000 U/min nominal speed. The efficiency is over 75%. The engines are available in industry-standard 24 and 48 V DC versions. Currently, Hall sensors are integrated for rotor control, the engine is controlled by external controller. Other intelligent integrated electronic modules, such as speed or storage controllers, will follow with either a BUS interface.

Engine, gearbox and brake can be freely selected

In order to bring the high speeds of the inner runner drive to application-oriented level and to increase the downforce speed, transmission modules are available, such as planetary gears and angular gearboxes with the innovative crown wheel technology. If the application requirements holding or safety brakes, modules with spring pressure or permanent magnetic brakes can complement the drive unit.

Versatile area of application

The industry-oriented drives are suitable for virtually all applications that require energy-efficient small drives, from automation and packaging technology to laboratory and medical technology. Thanks to defined preferred types, selected drive configurations are ready for shipment within 48 hours (from spring 2019), so that sampling can be realized in the shortest possible time, for example. The drives can be configured and ordered via the online portal idt-config.ebmpapst.com.
