UL-certified and EMC-compliant

The new motors in the PGK series not only have CE certification, but also UL certification for the American market. We have integrated interference suppression components for EMC into the certified motors, which is not easy to implement in this combination. Electromagnetic compatibility is an important factor in medical technology in particular, as diagnostics take place close to the drive and the motor must not have any disruptive influence on the devices. Similar to switch construction, it is also important in medical technology that the motors can withstand high overloads for short periods. Our new sizes can be subjected to up to three times their rated power for short periods without suffering damage.

Compact, energy-efficient and powerful

Permanently excited DC motors behave in a similar way to shunt-wound motors. They are energized via a commutator, are speed-stiff, but offer a high starting torque. As the stator field is not generated electrically, the motors are also extremely energy-efficient. In addition, little waste heat is generated during operation, making the PMDC motors particularly reliable, low-maintenance and fail-safe. The PGK series from Groschopp also impresses with its low-noise operation, high torque and high efficiency. The compact motors offer rated speeds from 1000 to 8000 min-1. Even under high loads, the drop in speed is low. They have a modular design and are optionally available with a second shaft end. They can also be combined with worm gearboxes in foot or flange design.

As an established manufacturer, we have extensive know-how and decades of application experience. This enables us to continuously develop our drive technology and adapt it to specific requirements.
