Baldor torque up new brushless servo motors.Baldor has released a new series of brushless AC servo An electromechanical device that uses feedback to provide precise starts and stops for such functions as the motors on a tape drive or the moving of an access arm on a disk. motors with rare-earth neodymium neodymium (nē'ōdĭm`ēəm), metallic chemical element; symbol Nd; at. no. 60; at. wt. 144.24; m.p. about 1,021°C;; b.p. about 3,068°C;; sp. gr. 7.004 at 20°C;; valence +3. Neodymium is a lustrous silver-yellow metal. iron boron boron (bōr`ŏn) [New Gr. from borax], chemical element; symbol B; at. no. 5; at. wt. 10.81; m.p. about 2,300°C;; sublimation point about 2,550°C;; sp. gr. 2.3 at 25°C;; valence +3. magnetics. Novel ring-shaped magnets that are pressed onto the motor shaft boost magnetic flux levels significantly, increasing torque levels by 20 to 60% compared with Baldor's ferrite-based BSM BSM Business Service Management BSM Basic Security Module BSM Best Stations Memory (Pioneer car stereos) BSM Business Systems Modernization BSM Bronze Star Medal BSM Black Student Movement BSM Benilde-St. B-series motors. The efficiency of the magnets is such that the manufacturers have additionally been able to reduce the length of some motors by typically 2.5 to 5cm (1-2 inches)--along with significant weight savings. The increased torque can translate directly into higher throughput, providing OEMs with the means to extend equipment lifecycles without costly redesign. Designated the BSM C-series, the new motors offer the same high inertias as equivalent BSM B models--as well as the same style of packaging, IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission, Geneva, Switzerland, www.iec.ch) An organization that sets international electrical and electronics standards founded in 1906. It is made up of national committees from over 60 countries. IEC - International Electrotechnical Commission mounting and connection arrangements--providing users with a simple upgrade path to higher performance and greater compactness. Inertias range from 3.72 to 13.1 Kg-c[m.sup.2] (0.0033-0.117 lb-inch-[s.sup.2]). BSM C-series complements the company's existing neodymium servo motors, which offer low inertias for applications requiring responsive acceleration and high speeds. Together, Baldor's servo range provides a choice that allows machine builders to specify the ideal mix of dynamic performance and inertia matching for individual precision motion axes. C-series provides machine builders with a compact solution for torques tor·ques n. Zoology A band of feathers, hair, or coloration around the neck. [Latin torqu ranging from 2 to 20 Nm (20 to 177 lb-inches), with a wide speed capability. A variety of feedback devices are available including resolvers, encoders, and absolute precision encoders. High-integrity design features include the use of advanced Polyrex EX grease for the bearings, and premium 200 C moisture-resistant multi-coated insulation wire. The neodymium magnetics additionally offer greater resistance to demagnetisation Noun 1. demagnetisation - the process of removing magnetization demagnetization degaussing - the process of making a (steel) ship's hull nonmagnetic by producing an opposing magnetic field , assuring users of repeatable performance throughout the motor's life.
