Into the future of drive technology with new dimensions and features for robotics
Human-like movements place high demands on precision, force, and dynamics, including delicate grip movements and powerful, coordinated joint movements. Developed to meet these new requirements in modern robotic applications, the new BXI is the most powerful integrated drive system in the Faulhaber portfolio
The internal-rotor motor of the 9317 BXI G series combines robustness and compactness, defining new standards for integrated drive systems in robotics. With a maximum torque of 20Nm, it can enable dynamic movements, fast reaction times, and precise movement control.
The motor has a voltage range up to 50V, and due to the available interfaces and an installation length og 34mm, it is also easy to integrate into existing system architectures. The BXI is suitable for applications where size, weight, and power density are decisive, such as a compact joint drive in humanoid robotics.
The drive system is a functional unit containing a motor, an integrated stepped planetary gearhead, and a high-resolution encoder. Its strength lies in the systemic integration: maximum performance with minimum space requirements.
The flat aluminium housing provides corrosion resistance while supporting optimised thermal dissipation. The internal-rotor construction with 21 pole pairs, a grooved stator, and an iron-core winding ensures low cogging torque and a high core torque density.
The integrated absolute encoder with 15-bit SSI, line driver, and compensation algorithm performs the precise positioning, is resistant to interference, and contributes to the reliability and accuracy of the entire system.
Combined with the Faulhaber MC5010 Motion Controller, an optimally matched system is created for torque-sensitive, precise positioning tasks. At the same time, motor and drive are reliably protected, while commissioning is particularly simple and efficient thanks to the Motion Manager software. The Faulhaber BXI provides a high-performance, future-oriented solution for demanding 1/2 robotics applications, where innovation, application, and new technology can seamlessly interact.
