AC Motors and Geared Motors:
Ac motors are used generally as a power source for automated equipment, because these motors can be operated easily by connecting the motors directly to an AC power supply. Oriental Motor offers standard AC motors incorporating various operating functions. A standard AC motor supports various applications by using with a brake pack or speed control circuit product, and combining with other mechanical components such as a gearhead or linear head.
Oriental Motor offers a wide variety of standard AC motors in frame sizes ranging from 1.65 inch (42 mm) to 4.09 inch (104 mm) square with output power of 1/750 HP (1W) to 1/4 HP (200 W). There are two basic types of AC motors: standard induction motors that run continuously and reversible motors that allow for bi-directional operation. AC motors with additional functionality are also available. These types of motors include: electromagnetic brake motors to hold loads in a power-off situation; clutch & brake motors for quick starts and stops; synchronous motors and low-speed synchronous motors for a fixed speed in synchronization with the power frequency; watertight motors for applications were the motor is splashed or washed with water and torque motors for tension control and winding applications.
Many of Oriental Motor's AC motors conform to UL/CSA/EN standards and apply the CE Marking in accordance with the low voltage directives. AC motors are available in power supply voltages that meet the requirements of North America, Asia and Europe.

Easy Operation

AC motors include single-Phase motors used with a single-phase power supply and three-phase motors used with a three-phase power supply. A single-phase motor can be operated by simply connecting it to a single-phase power supply via the supplied capacitor. A three-phase motor does not require a capacitor. All you need is to connect the motor directly to a three-phase power supply.

The Power Supply Frequency Determines the Speed

The basic speed (synchronous speed) of a standard AC motor is determined by the power supply frequency and the number of poles. Many of our standard AC motors have four poles, so their synchronous speed is as follows:
  • 50 Hz: 1500 r/min
  • 60 Hz: 1800 r/min
The actual speed varies according to the load torque.
With our motors, the speed roughly falls within the following ranges at a load torque equivalent to the rated torque:
  • 50 Hz: 1200 to 1300 r/min
  • 60 Hz: 1450 to 1600 r/min
The rated speed of our standard AC motors are set within the above ranges and shown in each motor's specifications. To calculate a more accurate machine speed, use the rated speed as a reference.
the power supply frequency varies from region to region. In the case of automated equipment used in different regions, change the gear ratio of the gearhead or take the appropriate measure to obtain the desired speed.

Various Operating Functions

Oriental Motor has induction motors and other motor types offering various operating functions to meet the diverse needs of customers.

AC Induction Motors
Oriental Motor offers a wide range of AC induction motors. Induction motors are optimal for uni-directional continuous operation such as a conveyor system. Capacitor-run, single-phase and three-phase motors are available. Lead wire type, terminal box type and conduit box type motors are available depending upon how the power source and the motor are connected.

Various Operating Functions

Oriental Motor has induction motors and other motor types offering various operating functions to meet the diverse needs of customers.

Induction Motors

These motors can be easily operated from an AC power supply. Single-phase and three-phase motors are available.
Induction Motors
Reversible Motors

Generating a greater starting torque and having a built-in friction brake, these single-phase motors allow for instantaneous switching of rotation direction.
Reversible Motors

Electromagnetic Brake Motors

These motors adopt a power off activated type electromagnetic brake to hold the load in position when the power is cut off.

Watertight, Dust-Resistant Motors

Geared motors of excellent watertight, dust-resistant structure. These motors conform to the IEC standard IP67.
Watertight Motors

Synchronous Motors

A special rotor is used to provide rotation at a fixed speed in synchronization with the power supply frequency.
Synchronous Motors

Low-Speed Synchronous Motors

Uses the same stator and rotor as stepping motors. The motor offers superb starting, stopping and reversing characteristics as well as synchronous operation.
Low-Speed Synchronous Motors

Clutch & Brake Motors

Equipped with an electromagnetic clutch and brake at the motor output shaft. High frequency starting and stopping is possible while the motor is operating.
