New Fan Shrouds for Bodine type 34R, 42R, and 48R - TEFC AC Gearmotors and Motors

New Fan Shrouds for Bodine type 34R, 42R, and 48R – TEFC AC Gearmotors and Motors

Starting this fall, we are rolling out new fan shrouds for our standard type 34R, 42R and 48R AC induction gearmotors and motors (48Rs, likely early 2022). The new, metal fan shrouds are several times stronger than the old metal designs and will provide superior protection to the fan end of the AC gearmotors and

Molecular Distillation Equipment for the Cannabis Industry

Molecular Distillation Equipment for the Cannabis Industry

A manufacturer of CBD distillation equipment required a gearmotor to precisely control the flow and speed of liquid material through their new distillation apparatus. Working with an authorized Bodine distributor and our sales team, the manufacturer selected several of our variable speed AC inverter duty gearmotors, combined with inverter drives (VFDs) and a PLC control

Updated 34B/SR-WX Brushless DC Gearmotors - 12/24VDC, CI/D2

Updated 34B/SR-WX Brushless DC Gearmotors – 12/24VDC, CI/D2

Brushless DC Gearmotors with Built-In Speed Control. Easy Set-Up! These new 34B/SR-WX, brushless DC, 12 or 24VDC, INTEGRAmotor gearmotors are ideal for low-voltage applications in remote locations that operate off-grid, from battery or solar power. The new geared motors are also suitable for a wide range of industrial or medical applications that only allow low-voltage

Powerful, Efficient Hypoid Gearmotors

Powerful, Efficient Hypoid Gearmotors

Right-angle gearmotors with hypoid gearsets have several advantages over standard worm and worm-gear gearmotors. While they cost more to manufacture, hypoid gearmotors are more efficient, produce less heat, provide higher torque, and are usually smaller than equivalent gearmotors with worm- and worm-gear reducers. More Efficient at Low Speeds and High Reductions Hypoid gears require less

AC Inverters (VFDs) for Variable Speed Applications

AC Inverters (VFDs) for Variable Speed Applications

Standard AC motors provide low-cost, low maintenance power for almost any industrial application. However, they have limitations. They run at only one (fixed) speed, meaning sprockets, pulleys or a gearbox are required for speed reduction. AC inverter-duty (variable speed) gearmotors feature either 230 VAC or 230/460 VAC AC 3-phase windings, specifically designed with inverter rated

Gearmotor Winding Options - AC, PMDC, and BLDC (EC)

Gearmotor Winding Options – AC, PMDC, and BLDC (EC)

Winding design is one of the major factors that determines gearmotor performance. For example, the windings may be driven by AC or DC current. They may require a capacitor, or a control to run, and may be configured as single, split- or three-phase systems. Some motor types provide precise speed and position control, while others

How to Connect a 3-Wire-Reversible 1-Phase PSC Gearmotor or Motor

In this How-To video, we explain how to connect and wire a run capacitor to one of our stock PSC (single-phase), 3-wire-reversible AC (fixed speed) gearmotors (type WX & FX). Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) gearmotors require a run capacitor to be connected to the winding at all times. Copyright Bodine Electric Company © 03/2020. All
