AC synchronous Conveyor Chain motors are the workhorses of sector. With synchronous motor technology, speed is directly proportional to AC input frequency – for instance, at 120 Vac, 60 Hz, an AC synchronous motor will turn at 72 rpm. This speed could be varied by different the frequency, although most applications simply make use of gearing or a belt- or chain-drive program to achieve the desired load speed.
We provide a comprehensive range of AC synchronous electric motor products which includes continuous torque, high torque and hybrid options to meet an array of application requirements. Our synchronous motors offer many advantages, including the ability to start within 1-1/2 cycles of the used frequency and reach full synchronous acceleration within 5 to 25 milliseconds. They can also stop within 5 examples of rotation and reverse similarly rapidly.
We offer two groups of AC synchronous motors in the ST/SN Series and KS/SS Series. High performance motors in these series can be found in NEMA 23, 34 and 42 framework sizes, with two- and three-phase models obtainable in each size. Resistor-capacitor kits are available for operating two-stage synchronous motors from a single-phase power resource. We also provide hazardous duty AC synchronous motors, certified to UL Course I, Division 1, Group D; UL Class 1, Division 2, Groups Electronic, F and G; and ATEX criteria.
