Improves machine performance
15 May 2017
With the new line of Allen Bradley Kinetix VPC servo motors from Rockwell Automation, manufacturers can run machines at higher speeds and higher torque, significantly improving machine throughput.

“The Kinetix VPC servo motor provides high continuous torque at high speeds over long periods of time,” said David Rajala, product manager, Rockwell Automation. “Its interior, permanent magnets allow for field weakening, which reduces electromagnetic resistance so a machine can carry loads continuously and well above motor-rated speeds. This allows manufacturers to keep web lines and winders running at high speeds and constant power.”
A cooling fan and cooling fins on the motor provide increased torque and power output. In addition, encoder options with improved resolution and accuracy provide more precise and responsive control, which is especially valuable for the printing industry.
