When sinusoidal commutation is used, what is the electrical cycle?
110, 210, and 310 motors have one 3600 electrical cycle equal to 2.40″ of travel. For 410 motors, 3600 =3.36″ of travel. The R5, R7 and R9 motors have a 40mm electrical cycle. The M50, R10, and R16 motors have a 60mm electrical cycle. • Do the magnets ever lose their magnetism with time? No. The magnets used are rare earth permanent magnets. They will only lose their strength if the temperature gets too high. This temperature is about 1000 C. • Can the motor be used underwater or in the presence of cutting fluids or oils? Maybe and Yes. Our motors have never been used in underwater applications. They are unaffected however by cutting fluids and oils. • Can I used the motor in vertical applications? Yes. Ideally, you will also want to use a counterbalance. Experience has shown the pneumatic counterbalance to provide the best performance. Failsafe linear brakes are also available. • How important is mechanical alignment for optimal motor performance? For ironless motor, it’s not importan
