Applied Motion Launches SWM24IP-3DE, TXM24IP-1DG Motors

Applied Motion Products introduced two NEMA 24 frame integrated motors with dual-port communications for connecting to the industrial EtherNet/IP network of a plant or machine. By incorporating two M12 EtherNet/IP connectors instead of just one on each axis, the SWM24IP-3DE Integrated Stepper Motor and TXM24IP-IDG StepSERVO Integrated Motor support more efficient network topologies such as line networks and daisy-chain connections.

EtherNet/IP network communications are an industrial protocol for manufacturing automation applications. With EtherNet/IP, users can control, configure and query a drive using an open, standards-based, industrial EtherNet connection at speeds up to 100 Mbits/sec. All drive and motor features are accessible over the EtherNet/IP network, including more than 100 commands and 130 registers for controlling motion, I/O, configuration, polling, math, register manipulation, and Q programming.

The SWM24IP-3DE and TXM24IP-1DG integrated motors are IP65 rated for use in splash-zone and dirty environments. Each motor features a NEMA 24 (60 mm) mounting flange, which has the same mounting dimensions as a NEMA 23 motor but with a larger shaft to accommodate a higher torque output.  Both motors include a built-in encoder for enhanced positioning capabilities. The SWM24IP-3DE can perform stall detection and stall prevention functions for more reliable and accurate performance than an open loop motor in a broader range of applications.

The TXM24IP-1DG utilizes Applied Motion’s StepSERVO Closed-Loop Stepper technology to greatly improve the performance of the step motor with greater acceleration, increased efficiency, increased accuracy as well as decreased motor heating and noise.
