Application Examples Compacta

Compacta series shaft-mounted gear motors with integrated control units provide incomparably high performance for each volume unit: No matter which performance class you choose, the low installation dimensions of the drives simplify assembly and installation considerably. As a result, the Compacta series is ideal for applications with limited space conditions.

An extensive array of options such as integrated brakes, rotary pulse encoders, safety clutches, forced ventilation units and a moisture-protection coating enable them to be adapted individually to a variety of applications, from machine and device engineering, handling technology and conveyor technology and use in clean rooms.

Additional customer-specific adaptations beyond these standard optionscan be implemented at any time.
