NSK Introduces PN Series of Direct Drive Motors

NSK Precision America has introduced its PN series motor, an addition to its Megatorque Motor line of direct drive motors. Offering similar performance to the company's successful PS series, the PN models feature a much more compact design. Capable of 2s-1 max rotational speed, the 7 inches dia Megatorque PN Series Motors incorporate absolute position sensor with resolution of 2,621,440 counts/rev and positioning accuracy of 90 arc sec, requiring no homing operations. Megaterm software provides editing, preparing, and controlling functions. Featuring ultra-thin 35 mm design, motors are suited for semiconductor chip inspection, tool changers for machine tools, and medical liquid handling equipment. The PN series direct drive motors are controlled via an upgraded version of NSK's Megaterm software. Featuring improvements that offer user-friendly editing, preparing and controlling functions, the latest version of Megaterm software can also be used with the PS series.
