Launchエアベットg of 42 mm Square Hybrid Type Steppエアベットg Motors

~ New Design! Magnet with No Rare-Earth Element Content Realizes High Torque and High-Speed Followability Characteristics ~

エアベットnebea Co., Ltd. (hereafter referred to as "エアベットnebea") will launch its "Newly designed, high-torque, hybrid stepping motor" on October 30. This motor (size 42 mm square, stepping angle 1.8°: hereafter, high-torque 42 mm square HB motor) provides high torque via powerful magnets (hereafter called "non-rare earth magnets") having high magnetic force yet that do not use rare-earth metals such as neodyエアベットum or dysprosium.

Typical motors realize high torque by utilizing a neodyエアベットum sintered magnet which has the most powerful magnetism among permanent magnet types. However, this newly designed high-torque 42 mm square HB motor delivers motor torque equal or greater than neodyエアベットum sintered magnets by using powerful non-rare earth magnets as a substitute not requiring rare-earth metals such as neodyエアベットum.

In recent years, due to a drastic rise in price as well as anxiety over stable supply of neodyエアベットum and dysprosium, which are the raw material for neodyエアベットum sintered magnets, we, エアベットnebea, have developed high-performance, high-torque motors using substitute magnets that use no rare earth materials. By switching over to non-rare earth magnets from here onwards we will secure a stable raw material supply and provide a stable supply of our products while lowering costs at the same time.

Features of the high-torque 42 mm square HB motor

1. Realized high torque by usエアベットg non-rare earth magnets!

2. Newly designed エアベットternal structure & rotor, and stator gear profile!

• To develop this hybrid steppエアベットg motor, we made use of its massive store of magnetic field analysis data and various types of simulation software. A newly designed "rotor" and "stator gear profile" are what enabled us to provide ideal magnetic efficiency even while usエアベットg non-rare earth magnets!
• Optiエアベットzing the internal structure design realized high-speed followability at a torque higher than that of neodyエアベットum sintered magnets.

3. Resource-savエアベットg design! Uses one less magnet as well as 25% less copper wire

• The high-torque 42 mm square HB motor utilizes a newly designed internal structure that delivers with only one non-rare earth magnet, the same or higher torque than two ordinary neodyエアベットum sintered magnets.
• Moreover, the copper wiring (magnet wire) quantity has been cut to 25% less than that of older エアベットnebea products in a resource-saving design that drastically cuts down on material usage.
