Portescap introduces 08ECP20 Ultra EC mini motor

Portescap has introduced the 08ECP20 brushless DC slotless motor, a mini actuation solution ideal for engineers looking to downsize devices and applications without compromising on performance or reliability, which sets a new standard for device miniaturisation.

The 08ECP20 is the smallest frame size to join Portescap’s Ultra EC portfolio. This 8mm motor incorporates Portescap’s proprietary Ultra EC winding and an optimised bearing assembly, a design that enables the brushless motor to achieve speeds up to 60,000 rpm.

Lower power losses lead to higher efficiency, while the absence of cogging torque results in smooth rotation and improved end-user experience.
 
The 08ECP20’s unique combination of compact design, high-speed capabilities, efficiency and maximised performance/price ratio positions it as an ideal solution for handheld device manufacturers across various industries. Specific examples include miniature actuators in the aerospace and defence sector, portable medical pumps, bionic and exoskeleton systems and optical/laser systems.
