Flat TorqueWide Speed Control Range and Flat Torque

The BX Series offers a wide speed range of 30 to 3000 r/min and provides flat torque at all speeds from high to low. The high starting torque characteristics ensure ample torque at start and stop.

 


 

Excellent Speed Stability

The BX Series offers highly accurate speed control, achieving an excellent speed regulation with respect to load.

Speed Regulation:

  • ±0.05% with respect to load
  • ±0.05% with respect to voltage
  • ±0.5% with respect to temperature

With the BX Series, rotational irregularity at medium and high speeds is also reduced substantially.

OPX-1AControl Module OPX-1A

You can extend the functions of the BX Series using the control module (OPX-1A). The following functions are available on the extended system:

  • Speed setting (up to 8 speeds)
  • Setting of positioning operation data (up to 6 data settings)
  • Torque limit setting
  • Various displays; speed (r/min), position counter (STEP), load factor (%), alarm codes, alarm history

Digital Speed SettingDigital Speed Setting up to Eight Speeds (Extended Function Using Control Module)

Speed can be set digitally using an optional control module. You can set up to eight different speeds.


 

Expanded Speed RangeSpeed Control Range of 3 to 3000 r/min (Extended Function Using Control Module)

The digital speed setting function expands the speed control range to cover 3 to 3000 r/min.

Improved Speed Control Accuracy

When using a control module (Digital Setting):

  • ±0.05% with respect to load
  • ±0.05% with respect to voltage
  • ±0.05% with respect to temperature

Position ControlPosition Control (Extended Function Using Control Module)

Position control can be performed with the BX Series simply by setting data using the optional control module. The resolution is 0.72° (500 pulses per rotation) and a maximum of six points of positioning data can be set, of which two can be set for continuous operation. Return to mechanical/electrical home operation can also be performed.


 

Torque LimitingTorque Limiting (Extended Function Using Control Module)

Use of the optional control module enables torque limiting. The torque limiting function suppresses the motor output torque in accordance with the application and use condition.
