Torque Motors
Torque motors are designed to provide high starting torque and sloping characteristics (torque is highest at zero speed and decreases steadily with increasing speed), and operate over a wide speed range. They also provide stable operation, especially in the low speed range or under a locked rotor condition.
Gearhead shown in the photograph is sold separately.

Features
Speed can be varied over a wide range
The motor torque is approximately proportional to the square of the voltage, allowing easy speed control simply by changing the voltage of the power supply.
V1 V2 V3 Load V4 V1> V2 > V3 > V4

Locked rotor operation is available

Unlike induction motors or reversible motors, torque motors are designed to provide a stable torque even under stall conditions or at very low speeds (nearly stalling). They are suitable for pushing applications that require static torque, or for loads that are usually under a locked rotor condition but are under stall conditions at the end of processes. For example, the motors 230 VAC input type can operate continuously at 115 VAC or less. When used at voltages above 115 VAC, the motors are rated for limited duty. The motor has a 5-minute rating at 230 VAC.
Note: When using a motor in a locked rotor condition, the output torque becomes very large. Do not exceed the permissible torque of the gearhead. Also, ensure that the work does not hit an object and stop, since this can cause damage to the gearhead due to the shock.

Work

Suitable for winding applications

In an application where an object is released continuously at a constant speed and wound up with constant tension, the torque must be doubled and the speed must be halved if the diameter of the winding spool is doubled.
Constant Tension Wind Up

Use as a brake
By using the motor in the braking region of the speed-torque characteristics, it can serve as a brake. Constant tension operation can be achieved by applying a DC voltage.
Note: If a torque motor is used as a brake, a right-angle gearhead cannot be used.

How to Read SpeedTorque Characteristics Graph

The torque generated by the torque motor changes approximately proportionally to the square of the voltage. When the voltage supplied to the motor is changed, speed-torque curves with a sloping characteristics (torque is highest at zero speed and decreases steadily with increasing speed) shifts to that of the corresponding voltage. When the voltage is changed to 230 VAC, 140 VAC and 115 VAC while the load torque is T0, the motor rotates at the speeds N1, N2 and N3 respectively. Thus, the speed can be changed easily by varying the voltage. When choosing a torque motor, first determine the required torque and speed. Then select a motor using the speed-torque characteristics curves to determine whether the motor should be operated under continuous duty or limited duty. When used under locked rotor conditions, only the torque factor is considered. The temperature rise of the motor may cause a problem during continuous operation. In this case, choose a motor with an output power large enough for continuous operation and adjust the voltage to control the torque and speed.

Voltage Control of Torque Motors

The method most commonly used to control voltage is by phase control using a triac. As shown in Fig. 1, by changing the phase angle "alpha" at which the triac switches, the input voltage is controlled as represented by the phase angle areas of the graph.

Fig. 1 Phase Control

GearmotorTorque Table
Due to the sloping characteristics,torque motors can be operated over a wide speed range, from locked rotor condition to the maximum speed. The permissible torque when a gearhead and a decimal gearhead are directly connected can be calculated according to the following formula, using the speed and torque determined from the speed-torque characteristics. Speed of gearhead output shaft NG = Motor speed 1/gearhead gear ratio Output torque of gearhead TG = Motor torque Gearhead gear ratio Gearhead efficiency The output torque of the gearhead must be lower than the maximum permissible torque.
