May 4, 2012 - Baldor announces FL440 RPM AC motors. The finned laminated 440 frame size is available with 800 HP enclosed blower cooled and 1200 HP using open force ventilated construction. PM rotor technology offers improved efficiency that can translate into increased power density and synchronous (non-slip) speed performance. This is achieved by virtue of its highly power-dense, low-loss rotor design where the permanent magnets are actually embedded within the rotor laminations. Typical applications for RPM AC PM motors include automotive test stands, extruders, winder/unwinders, metal forming and bending machinery, machine tool/spindle applications and replacement of square frame DC motors.
The RPM AC PM product line is currently available in both NEMA and IEC (112, 132, 160, 180, and 280) frame sizes. These motors are all designed to provide continuous constant torque performance from zero speed up to base speed for use with closed-loop PM AC drives.
