ElectroCraft's MobilePower™ Leap Award winning MPW wheel drive is a compact, high-torque density electric wheel drive.
- The new MPW86 offers a best in class 500lb per wheel load with speeds of up to 4.3 meters/second.
- The MPW86 offers powerful starting torque of 35 Nm and 20 Nm continuous.
The MPW86 integrated design provides increased performance and reliability at an affordable price compared to traditional motor/gearbox/wheel combinations. The MPW86 is an ideal drivetrain solution for medium to large payload mobile robots and AGVs.
Linear Actuator Expansion, Introducing the APES17
ElectroCraft has recently expanded the AxialPower™ Enhanced Series of Linear Actuators to include a new high-performance 42mm (NEMA 17) frame size. This new linear actuator is highly configurable and available with a variety of imperial or metric leadscrew options. The new NEMA 23 Stepper Linear Actuator will also be added to the ElectroCraft Linear Actuator product family in March.
Introducing ElectroCraft's new MobilePower™ MPW52 wheel drive
Featuring a high torque-density brushless DC motor with integrated single-stage planetary gearbox and wheel assembly.
ElectroCraft's MPW52 integrates a 14-pole Brushless DC motor with a heavy-duty, single-stage planetary gearbox mounted inside the hub of an aluminum wheel with polyurethane tread. Designed for mobile platform traction systems with optional encoder feedback to support positioning capability and electromagnetic brake to hold position when power is removed. The MPW52 combines optimum performance with high-efficiency, quiet operation and long life.
ElectroCraft DC Motor Drives - performance and flexibility for a wide range of applications
Two motor drive families from ElectroCraft have expanded capabilities. The CompletePower™ Plus Universal Drive series is compatible with a range of motor types, including brushless dc, permanent magnet dc brush motors, as well as open and closed-loop stepper motors. The PRO Series drives incorporate a fully programmable motion controller with built-in networking and are available in a variety of hardware configurations including stand-alone, PCB mount, or as part of an integrated motor drive solution.
ElectroCraft Pandemic Response, COVID-19
ElectroCraft produces motors and other components for companies who make Hospital Beds, Wheelchairs, Respirators, Ventilators, Blood Analyzers, Air Filtration Devices, Personal Protective Equipment for First Responders, and more. During this time ElectroCraft is committed to the support of our employees, suppliers, and customers.
We are committed to supporting our existing customers, but also our customers who have been forced to close during this crisis, and to our partner companies who are being asked to manufacture goods to support in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic. #togetherwewillwin
DC Gearmotors for Mobile Platform Traction Systems
Design World reviews three series of dc gearmotors, the MP, MPP, and MPS series from ElectroCraft, provide smooth, controlled power and high starting torque. The gearmotors are well suited for use in medical mobility equipment, autonomous mobile robots, and other mobile platform traction systems. Learn more about ElectroCraft Gearmotors
Linear Actuators
We use three types of linear actuator technology to provide products for every application.
DC Motor Drives - Custom DC Motor Drives
Our DC Motor Drives are designed for high performance and are ideal for applications where precise speed and position control are required.
The LRPX, Simple Overview Video
The LRPX integrated gear motor solution can achieve the equivalent output of current industry leaders with 25% more efficiency in a nearly 40% smaller package size.
