IntroductionThe Denis Ferranti Group introduces the Fracmo Compact Torque Motor (CTM), a brushless
DC motor designed for enhanced reliability and efficiency. The CTM is compact, weighing 1.5kg with dimensions of 87mm in diameter and 70mm in length, making it 30% smaller and 18% more efficient than traditional motors. It is maintenance-free and sealed for life, suitable for various applications from simple drives to complex integrated solutions.
Integrated Drive Electronics
The CTM features integral drive electronics, offering multiple interface possibilities with standard communications hardware and non-dedicated analogue and digital I/O pins. This allows the CTM to function as a stand-alone system controller with bespoke software.
