Portescap, a developer of miniature movement options, just lately launched the 08ECP20 brushless DC slotless motor. Portescap stated this mini actuation answer is designed for engineers trying to downsize gadgets and purposes with out compromising on efficiency or reliability.
The firm stated the 08ECP20 is the smallest body measurement in its Ultra EC portfolio. The 8mm motor contains Portescap’s proprietary Ultra EC winding and an optimized bearing meeting that the corporate stated permits the brushless motor to realize speeds as much as 60,000 rpm.
Portescap additionally just lately launched the M-Sense12A, the primary autoclavable encoder to affix its product lineup and an enlargement of its surgical options capabilities. Portescap stated this encoder has been optimized for surgical robotic purposes and might survive as much as 2,000+ sterilization cycles, with its autoclavable design permitting it for use inside surgical gadgets requiring exact positioning of the motor’s rotor. It is appropriate with Portescap’s present portfolio of surgical motors.

The M-Sense12A magnetic encoder offers a decision vary as much as 1024 traces and accuracy as much as 1.5 levels, making it a possible match for surgical purposes requiring correct positioning and closed-loop movement suggestions. This encoder can be in a position to work precisely at excessive enter speeds, Portescap stated, with a most enter pace of 120 kRPM at 1024 traces/rev in incremental mode. Incremental and absolute suggestions choices can be found.
Portescap’s Greg Harnsberger, senior supervisor of world business advertising and marketing, might be talking on the Robotics Summit & Expo, which takes place May 1-2 in Boston. Harnsberger and Yoshi Umeno, business supervisor, world medical & robotics at Kollmorgen, will talk about “Design for Peak Performance: Motion Control System Selection in Next-Gen Robotics” from 1:45-2 PM on May 1.
The speak will dive into the vital elements impacting motor choice throughout joint sizes, from high-torque motors changing hydraulics to miniature motors for clean and exact end-effector movement. It can even uncover the secrets and techniques to seamless communication from suggestions gadgets and educate attendees easy methods to engineer an optimized motor system.
Kollmorgen and Portescap are each owned by Regal Rexnord.
