Drive Systems evolved. Generally speaking, electric motors are not "lone wolves" but for most applications need to be combined with gearheads for speed reduction as well as encoders. To ensure that the components are perfectly matched to each other and to minimise installation requirements, it is recommended to obtain the individual components as a complete solution from a single source. Even in cases where installation space is extremely tight and where high-torque drives are required which, owing to the installation situation, need to be as short as possible, there is a practice-oriented solution that is especially suitable for applications in robotics, prosthetic joints, laboratory automation, pumps, medical technology or aircraft cabin equipment.

A FAULHABER Drive System is more than just the sum of its components. When application engineers combine FAULHABER products with one another, the overall performance of the system increases. This is the FAULHABER principle of perfectly optimised parameters and interfaces for compact, integrated and high-performance drive solutions.

The corona pandemic has meant an increase in demand for medical equipment, in particular ventilation and laboratory technology. With its drive systems, FAULHABER makes an important contribution in ensuring the reliable operation of equipment used in these now vital applications and is doing its utmost to safeguard supply. At the same time, the health of our employees has top priority!

While electric mobility is becoming ever more popular, there is still room for developing functional standard technologies in some areas. One such example is the way cars are charged: nobody wants to see streets littered with charging stations. And while inductive charging is largely hidden from view, it comes with some significant disadvantages. Here Volterio offers an efficient alternative that makes sense. The prototype of the charging robot moves using FAULHABER motors.

High resolution meets overwhelming acceleration!

FAULHABER developed the new sterilisable 2057…BA family of motors especially for medical applications. In the sensor-free variant, the drives can withstand more than 1500 autoclave cycles. They are optimized for high speeds of up to 65,000 rpm, as are required in, e.g., the handpieces of dental equipment.

FAULHABER Singapore Pte Ltd will be rebranded FAULHABER Asia Pacific Pte Ltd, effective January 1st 2020. Also, the company will take over sales & services in Thailand from its long-time distributor.

The new metal GPT planetary gearhead family characterized by its compact dimensions, high torque and very fine graduations of the numerous gear ratios. It is extremely robust and tolerates both frequent as well as sudden load changes. The gearheads operate with high efficiency, can be combined with many different motors and enable various shaft configurations.
