Precision and speed are crucial in the printing industry, whether producing magazines, labels, packages, or technical drawings. Frameless direct-drive torque motors, with their dexterous motion control, are perfect at meeting these demands. Being compact and gearless, they can seamlessly integrate into modern multi-axis shuttle assemblies, feed mechanisms, and industrial print heads.
Label Printing Machines
Frameless direct drive motors precisely cut, unwind, and feed rolls of label material at high speeds. Their accurate movements apply perfect pressure and avoid wrinkles as labels seamlessly detach and apply to products on conveyors. This steady precision applies thousands of labels per minute. They also enable the printing cylinders to rotate at precise speeds and apply ink or other printing materials onto the labels.
Flexographic Printing Machines
These huge machines use direct drives to maneuver heavy silicone or rubber printing plates into exact positions over products smoothly moving below. Their powerful yet steady motions hold vibrant images vividly—whether for packaging boxes or stretchy candy wrappers. Their precise rotation and torque control allow accurate ink transfer onto the substrate.
3D Printing
In 3D printers, direct drive motors feed plastic filaments into extruder printheads. Their coordinated control heats and precisely deposits melted strands layer by layer. Going gearless allows them to instantly change speeds and angles, creating whatever complex designs digital models envision in full, bright color. They drive the print head, build plate, or other movable components.
Embossing and Foil Stamping Machines
Direct drives transfer metallic foil or deeply cut patterns onto everything from magazines to certificates. As accurate cutters pinch materials through rollers, these motors sustain pressure across large areas for flawless impressions. They drive the embossing or stamping cylinders and control their precise movement. The designs stay sharply outlined from the first page to the last.
