ECX brushless motors are fast, sterilisable and configurable

Maxon motor has launched a series of high-speed motors that are configurable online. The ECX brushless motors are claimed to run smoothly, are quiet and are highly efficient. These brushless drives are suitable for use in hand-held surgical tools and industrial spindles.

All three high-speed motors are now available in maxon’s online shop where, in addition to the brushed motors, customers can fit the drives with specific mechanical and electrical components specific to their application needs. For example, with the ECX 8 mm, the GPX planetary gearheads and ENX 8 encoders are available. It is also possible to customise the shaft lengths, winding types, ball bearings and much more.

The ECX motors are available with diameters of 8, 16 and 19mm achieving speeds of up to 120,000rpm and are available with different power stages and in standard or sterilisable versions.
