Description
The MOOG SM34165D is a Class 5 D-Style SmartMotor™ designed for industrial automation applications. It integrates a motor, controller, amplifier, encoder, and communication bus into a single, compact unit. Here’s a breakdown of its key features and functionalities based on available information:
Function:
- Controls the precise movement (position, speed) of a rotary axis within a machine or robot.
- Simplifies installation and reduces wiring complexity compared to traditional servo systems with separate motors and controllers.
Key Features (based on datasheet):
- NEMA 34 Frame Size: A larger standard size for industrial stepper motors and servo motors compared to NEMA 17 and 23, allowing for handling higher torque loads.
- Integrated Servo Drive: The motor itself houses the servo drive, eliminating the need for a separate controller unit.
- Continuous Torque: Delivers 1.09 Nm (9.67 lb-in) of continuous torque, suitable for driving moderate loads in industrial automation applications.
- Peak Torque: Can reach up to 1.60 Nm (14.12 lb-in) of torque for short bursts.
- Nominal Continuous Power: Provides 235 Watts of continuous power, which along with the torque ratings helps determine its suitability for your application.
- No Load Speed: Up to 3,100 RPM without any load on the shaft.
- Communication Bus: Uses various communication protocols like DeviceNet, PROFIBUS, or CANopen for real-time communication with a higher-level motion controller or PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) in the automation system. (Specific protocol depends on the model variant).
- Encoder: The integrated encoder provides feedback on the motor’s position and speed, enabling precise closed-loop control.
Typical Applications (within Industrial Automation):
- Material handling systems (conveyors, heavier robots)
- Packaging machinery (conveyors, labeling machines for larger items)
- Printing machinery (web handling, cutting thicker materials)
- Machine tool applications (rotary tables, tool changers for heavier tools)
