3. Why Direct Drive Technology?
• Direct coupling of the load to the motor
• No compliance between motor and load
• Inertia mismatch is irrelevant (theoretically)
• 1000:1 inertia mismatch applications in place
(standard servo is 10:1)

5. Frameless - Brushed
• Permanent magnet stator (stationary)
• Wound armature/rotor (rotating)
• Self-commutating
• Limited peak power due
to mechanical
switching that results in
excessive sparking in
DC motors.
• Least torque ripple of
any motor design

6. Frameless - Brushless
• Wound stator (stationary)
• Permanent magnet armature/rotor (rotating - reduced inertia)
• Commutation is done based on rotor position such that
synchronism is always maintained. This is referred to as self-
synchronism. The motor maintains the ability to deliver torque
regardless of the velocity error.
• High commutation frequencies = high speeds
• Good heat dissipation because the windings are on the outside
• The ability to deliver current based on demand is a key feature of
servos. If the motor is at rest and there is no load, no current is
consumed, and the motor can cool.
• High bus voltage to force current into the windings is available;
mitigates the electrical time constant of the winding Sold & Serviced By:

16. CDDR Application Considerations
• Machine has existing bearings?
• Through-bore required?
• Fast, accurate motion is required?
• Reliability and zero motor maintenance is a must?
• Fast machine maintenance a requirement?
• Consider ...
– Axial shaft movement
– Shaft dimensions and TIR
– Perpendicularity of mounting surface
– Thermal capacity of machine structure Sold & Serviced By:

17. Cartridge DDR Applications
• Any application where the machine has its own set of
bearings, but still can benefit from the DDR performance
advantages
• Converting:
– Rollers, Coaters, Feeders, Die Cutters
• Other application examples
– Injection molding: IM machine mold indexing
– Press feed: Incremental motion

25. DDR vs. Mechanical Indexer
Customer identified these advantages of the DDR over the
mechanical indexer they used previously
– Improved Repeatability
– DDR Accuracy and Repeatability do not degrade over
time as with the mechanical indexer
– Can immediately stop DDR motion if there is a process
error
– Greatly reduced audible noise
– Easily change DDR index angle, speed, and dwell
– DDR provides better overall value
