Modifications, brakes and Encoder attachment for best price-performance • Maximum flexibility: portfolio of industrial motors for cultivation of worm, spur, flat and planetary gears • Highest quality: Automated production to automotive standards ensures high quality
Ott BLDC motors
Brushless DC motors are highly dynamic, compact drives for applications with very long operating times. Our BLDC motors are characterized by high power densities, high overload capacity, long service life and freedom from wear and maintenance. Technical data: • Supply voltages 12V, 24V, 36V and 48V • Power range 1 to 1,880W • High speed range up to 25,000rpm • Protection class up to IP66 as standard (higher protection class on request) • High dynamics and good controllability • Matching speed controller or 4Q motor control available • Encoder (incremental/absolute) and brakes can be mounted Additional values: • Long service life: Wear-free BLDC technology for applications with very high mileage • Maximum flexibility: attachment of worm, spur, flat and planetary gears using a modular system • Highest quality: High power density in the smallest space with low running noise
Ott AC motors
AC motors are characterized by a particularly compact design and are therefore ideal for the smallest installation spaces. They are available in single-phase and three-phase versions. The robust and wear-free design also enables a long service life. Technical data: • Supply voltages 115V, 230V, 400V, 460V • Motors available in CE and UL versions • Power range from 6 to 2,200W • Motors available in 2- and 4-pole as single-phase and three-phase motors • Protection class up to IP66 as standard (higher protection class on request) • Motor types can be combined with the entire transmission range • Encoder (incremental/absolute) and brakes can be mounted Added value: • Compact design: Slimmer than conventional drives, these AC motors are particularly suitable for the smallest installation spaces • Maximum flexibility: attachment of worm, spur, flat and planetary gears using a modular system • Easy integration: UL/CSA certified drives reduce documentation effort
Ott Controllers
Controllers are available for DC and BLDC motors with peak currents up to max. 225A. Basically, a distinction is made between simple, non-programmable controls and A distinction is made between programmable motor controllers for complex positioning tasks. These controls are easy to network and have, for example, CAN-Open, EtherCAT and ProfiNet interfaces. Technical data: • Supply voltages from 9V to 60V • Speed controller or programmable motor controller available • Communication via I/Os, bus or independent operation possible • Mounting option via top-hat rail or flat mounting • STO safety function for use in critical applications • Brake chopper to protect the controller during dynamic braking processes • MPLC programming software available as freeware Added value: • Best price-performance: portfolio of programmable controllers where necessary and simple speed controllers where possible • Maximum flexibility: Controller connection via I/Os, CAN-Open, EtherCAT, ProfiNet, Modbus for a diverse connection • Easy integration: Experienced application team supports controller programming and supplies pre-programmed controller
Ott Linear actuators
Linear actuators convert the rotational movement of a motor into a push/pull movement. They have been specially developed for all types of applications where lifting, pulling or pushing movements with a certain force are required.With our programmable motor controls, soft starts and flexible end stops can be easily implemented and manufacturing tolerances can be compensated for. Technical data: • Supply voltages 12V, 24V, 48V, 115V, 230V • Large selection of stroke lengths up to max. 1,000mm • Maximum tensile/compressive force up to 14,000N; max. static load 20,000N • Robust construction, corrosion-resistant, stainless steel push tube, protection class IP69k • Synchronization of multiple actuators via CAN using our motor controllers • Emergency actuation for safe operation when de-energized • Position feedback (incremental / absolute) and limit switches available Added value: • Easy integration: Plug & Play solutions for shorter development times and faster time to market • High productivity: Virtually maintenance-free design with lifetime lubrication • High reliability: Extensive tests guarantee high quality: cold test (EN60068-2-1), dry heat (EN60068-2-2), salt spray (EN60068-2-52), vibration (EN60068-2-6)
Ott Switching power supply
The switched-mode power supply units are available in 1-phase and 3-phase versions. Furthermore, our switched-mode power supplies have various protection mechanisms, e.g. against short circuit, overload, overvoltage and overheating. Due to their good efficiency and their compact and lightweight design, they are ideal for applications where the available installation space is limited. They can be used universally and can simply be snapped onto the DIN rail. They are also suitable for output voltages of 24V and 48V as well as for rated currents of up to 40A and outputs of up to 960W.
