          ACTUATORS          

The actuator modules are designed to interface with other EMB modules via components mounted to the shaft. Examples of components are gears, pulleys, sprockets, shaft couplers, and shaft collar hubs.

The EMB-AM1 is a brushed DC motor, recommended for applications where higher impedance and motor cogging is acceptable, such as entry level physics classes, plant disturbance, robust control and motor parasitic effects studies. 

Key features:

  • Rated Voltage: 24V

  • Power: 20W

  • Shaft diameter: 3/16" (4.76mm)

  • Connector: screw terminal

  • Anodized aluminum body

  • Motor made in the USA

The EMB-AM2 powered by a German made premium quality, high efficiency and low inductance brushed DC motor. It provides high dynamics, low cogging, high performance and smooth motion.

Note, this motor has a 5.00mm diameter shaft and is relatively short in length.

Key features:

  • Rated Voltage: 24V

  • Power: 30W

  • Shaft diameter: 5.00 mm

  • Connector: screw terminal

  • Anodized aluminum body

  • Motor made in Germany (Faulhaber)

EMB-AM2
$630

The EMB-AM3 is very similar to the EMB-AM2 but has more power. It is powered by a German made premium quality, high efficiency and low inductance brushed DC motor. It provides high dynamics, low cogging, high performance and smooth motion.

Note, this motor has a 5.00mm diameter shaft and is relatively short in length.

Key features:

  • Rated Voltage: 24V

  • Power: 60W

  • Shaft diameter: 5.00 mm

  • Connector: screw terminal

  • Anodized aluminum body

  • Motor made in Germany (Faulhaber)

EMB-AM3
$695

EMB-AM4
$795

The EMB-AM4 is powered by a Swiss made premium quality, high efficiency and low inductance brushed DC motor. It provides high dynamics, low cogging, high performance and smooth motion.

The rotor is custom made for Robots5 from Maxon (Switzerland), to provide a 6mm shaft with flat to make it ideal to interface with with other EMB components (6mm is the EMB standard shaft diameter).

This actuator is our recommendation for most applications.

Key features:

  • Rated Voltage: 24V

  • Power: 70W

  • Direct drive, no internal gearing

  • Shaft diameter: 6.00 mm

  • Connector: screw terminal

  • Anodized aluminum body

  • Motor made in Switzerland

The EMB-AM5 is a DC hysteresis brake. Applications include use as a load or disturbance to characterize acturators and mechanisms such as a dynamometer.

Key features:

  • Rated Voltage: 24V

  • Continuous Kinetic Power: 12W

  • 5 Minute Kinetic Power: 45W

  • Shaft diameter: 5.00 mm

  • Connector: screw terminal

  • Fan Voltage: 12V or 24V

  • Anodized aluminum body

  • Brake made in the USA

EMB-AM5
