Gearmotors And Speed Controller Handle Continuous-Duty Apps

The company now offers a selection of 12V permanent magnet DC gearmotors and a DC motor speed control for continuous duty OEM applications. The 12V PMDC gearmotors and motors are available in both 24A- and 33A-frame motor sizes with gearmotor output speeds from 5.6 to 660 rpm. Horsepower extends from 1/50 to 1/8 hp and they are able to generate up to 35 Nm of torque. Higher output ratings are possible for intermittent duty applications and custom models are available with encoders installed, special output shafts, cords, and customer-specific mounting configurations. The Type WPM–12 VDC speed control suits battery-, solar-powered, and other low-voltage applications that require basic, single-direction speed control. A PWM speed control, it promises cool motor operation, long brush life, low noise, and a wide speed range. For more info, call BODINE ELECTRIC CO., Chicago, IL. (800) 726-3463.
