Greenville, DE — PITTMAN Series GM8000 brush-commutated DC gearmotors from Servo2Go.com feature 11-slot skewed armatures to minimize magnetic cogging (or reluctance torque) and promote quiet and smooth operation.
Series GM8000 gearmotors are available with a range of 11 standard reduction ratios from 6.3:1 to 187.7:1. Peak torques up to 175 oz-in can be achieved with wide-face gear options. Armatures are skewed to minimize magnetic cogging, even at low speeds, and windings are resin-impregnated for greater reliability in incremental motion applications. Two-pole permanent magnet stators are constructed of ceramic magnets enclosed in heavy-gauge steel return rings. Diamond-turned commutators ensure maximum brush life.
GM8000 series gearmotors are available with and without encoder feedback, and are typically shipped in stock to 3 weeks.
Typical industry applications include data storage, medical/biotech, semiconductor, automation, commercial aviation, and others requiring high performance and reliability.
