Clutches and brakes are designed to start and stop two independently rotating inertial loads when a voltage is energized or de-energized. Although there are many different types of brakes and clutches, electro-magnetic types

The PowerPick gripper and the multipick software from Robotiq are both designed to extend the range of palletizing applications, both in payload and throughput.

Designed for heavy-duty industrial applications, these advanced gear units offer high torque outputs and flexible installation options, making them ideal for use in demanding environments.

This 1-axis motion controller features Ethernet/RS232 communication and an optional 800W Servo Drive.

Maxon’s new IDX compact integrated servo gearmotor + drive. A powerful brushless EC-i motor & EPOS4 positioning controller.

The choice between a servo and stepper motor is an important decision in any system design. In general, the higher the performance requirement (high precision, variable load, high duty cycle, high torque vs. speed) the more likely a servo will be the choice.

Used with small step motors in NEMA 8, 11, and 14 frame sizes. The small design of the gearheads doesn't adversely affect the outside dimensions of the combined gearmotor.
