Geared motor added to synchronous servomotor line

January 2003 Motion Control & Drives Products & Solutions

The new servo-geared motors from Siemens Automation & Drives (A&D) based on the 1FK7 servo-motor line are suitable for simple positioning and transporting tasks such as those needed for continuous webs. With four different gear versions (helical, flat, bevel and worm), the 1FK7 line offers a wide range of transmission ratios; drive torques and/or speeds and mechanical expansion options. Foot- and flange-mounted designs can be combined with solid or hollow shafts, keys, internal gearing or shrink disks. Thanks to their compact design, the geared motors can be used in a number of applications for mechanical engineering. (See www.siemens.com/drivesolutions)
