Groschopp Gearmotors are an excellent choice for conveying systems!

A local area conveyor manufacturer was looking for an alternative due to existing long lead times they were experiencing with a current vendor. 

The fitment was excellent for the very small framed conveyors used in systems integration and the manufacturer was only interested in single and three right angle worm gear style gearmotors as DC and BLDC wasn't needed for this equipment series.  Here's a little bit of back ground on Groschopp:

"Groschopp Inc. is a manufacturer of highly engineered fractional horsepower electric motors and gearmotors for OEM and distribution products. Our technical team is experienced in providing integrated solutions for demanding applications. Groschopp offers a full line of AC, DC, brushless and universal motors along with a full line of right angle worm, planetary, right angle planetary and parallel shaft gearboxes."

Groschopp’s manufacturing facilities are located in Sioux Center, Iowa and San Luis Potosi, Mexico.

All Groschopp products are manufactured and assembled in the United States facility (high volume, low cost applications manufactured in Mexico – per customer request only).

As an ISO 9001:2008 registered company, Groschopp delivers expert technical assistance, superior product performance and over 70 years of quality-honed workmanship and industry experience. Through years of service to meet the demands of numerous OEMs, Groschopp has perfected product designs, systems and manufacturing techniques to offer customers many distinct advantages including:

  • A full-service engineering department, able to create custom motors/gearmotors or modify standard designs
  • Fast service for prototypes, OEM and replacement motors
  • Standard catalog motors/gearmotors built to ship in 48 hours or less
  • 8,000 standard motor designs built-to-order

Right Angle Gearmotors

  • 115 & 230 VAC
  • 13 – 582 RPM
  • 2.5 – 437 in-lb rated torque
  • 1/20 ‑ 3/4 HP
  • 5:1 – 100:1 Standard Ratios
  • Inverter Duty Standard

If your organization is looking for either an OEM replacement gearmotor for belt conveyor or other applications, consider Groschopp as your next choice We believe you will be just as impressed as we are in their value and performance.

Now You Are Able To Monitor Your Motor Speed Outdoors!

The new Dart Controls PU-R Series Pick-Up Speed Sensor will be ready for shipment in about 3 weeks!  Customers are already calling us about these and getting ready to order!

The Dart PU Series pick-up is an economical and reliable way to monitor motor speed. Its unique design provides ease of installation in otherwise difficult to reach areas. The PU pick-up operates at a 5 to 24 volt level producing a sharp square wave output, which may be fed into Dart’s field programmable tachometer, closed-loop control, counter, or any other digital device.

The NEW PU-R Series is outdoor duty rated: indoor or outdoor use; protection against access to hazardous parts, intrusion of solid foreign objects, (in this case, food would be a foreign object..oh,come on, you knew I HAD to throw something in here!) in addition to harmful effects due to the exposure of water (rain, sleet, snow, but not necessarily soda pop) and corrosion.  And, just like the PU-E Series, you can adjust the PPR's from 1 to 20 with a simple magnet disc change.

Call us now to be one of the first customers to order this product: 800-325-9653 .

Marshall Wolf Automation is your authorized industrial automation distributor for the complete line of Dart Control speed controls, brushless DC motor controls, speed sensors and more!

New Products: Outdoor Duty Speed Sensor/Pickup from Dart Controls!

Our popular Dart Controls PU-E series has always been an economical and reliable way to monitor motor speed. The PU-E series is rated for indoor industrial applications, however, the new Dart Controls PU-R is rated for outdoor applications!

The Dart Controls PU-R is recommended for applications where occasional water washdown is expected and/or where temperature, humidity, rain and dust are present.

The Dart Controls PU series pick-up operates at a 5 to 24 volt level producing a sharp square wave output which may be fed into Dart's field programmable tachometer, closed-loop control, counter or any other digital device.

Completely self-contained, the Dart Controls PU series eliminates the alignment hassle found with other devices. This is an excellent 'motor not running' feedback device to PLC/SCADA systems.

Marshall Wolf Automation is your authorized industrial automation distributor for the complete line of Dart Control speed controls, brushless DC motor controls, speed sensors and more!

New Dart Controls Speed Sensor/Pickup can "take it AND dish it out"

The NEW Speed Sensor/Pickup from Dart Controls "takes it" because it is one of the only speed sensors that is rated for OUTDOOR DUTY. It can be used to replace expensive Incremental Shaft Encoders on Brushless DC Motors (or any motor) in rouged and harsh environments. The PU-R is perfect for indoor or outdoor use and it is totally safe to use in areas of rain, sleet, or snow. The PU-R is incredibly corrosion resistant.

 

PU-R "dishes" it out because of it's industrial leading specifications!

- NPN open collector output with built-in pull up resistor

- +4.5 to 24vdc supply voltage

- Available in 1 to 20 pulse per revolution (PPR)

- Molded Santoprene (TM) cover

- -40C to +100C operating temp

- STN STL sealed ball bearing, mounting screw and washers

- Water repellant bearing lubricant

- Simple design

The NEW Dart Controls PU-R is perfect for conveyor, printing, material handling, or any application where rugged construction is required.

Brushless DC Motors

The Delta brushless DC motors (BLDCM) are synchronous electric motors with permanent magnets. They are powered by DC and incorporate an electronically controlled commutation system, instead of a mechanical commutation system based on brushes. Using an electronically controlled commutation system offers several advantages compared to other motor structures. There is less mechanical/electrical noise, lower temperature, no brush dust, and lower rotor losses. All this adds up to higher efficiency, performance, and energy savings compared to a traditional motor.

Delta Brushless DC Motors

Delta’s brushless DC motor is offered from 200w to 750W with a speed range of 600 rpm. The unique compact size allows for space savings and easy installation, while the constant torque output offers smooth control. An external brushless DC amplifier is offered to drive this motor using a square-wave PWM control mode and integrated electronically controlled commutation. For more details, contact your local Delta office. The BLDCM series are used in applications including: Automatic Doors, Carriage Doors, and Elevator Doors.


The Delta Integrated Brushless Motor (IBLM) combines their BLDCM and a Brushless Amplifier. This motor/drive combination is offered from 250W thru 750W, with a speed range of 150 rpm to 1750 rpm. This cost effective system is an attractive choice over the conventional induction motor by offering approximately 20% more efficiency in a smaller package. The IBLM series are used in many applications including: Clothes Dryer, HVAC and Washing Machines.

BLDC Motors

BLDC MotorWhat is a BLDC motor?  That's the first thing I thought when I first saw this term.  BLDC means brushless DC motor.  And why is that a good thing?  Because brushes wear out, for one thing.  Also, brushes limit how many poles the armature can have, limit the max speed of the motor, and when the brushes make and break electrical connections, spark and give you noise. 

The only disadvantage of a brushless motor is its higher initial cost, but you can often recover that cost through the greater efficiency over the life of the motor.  That disadvantage disappears if you shop through Marshall Wolf Automation, your industrial automation distributor!  

Our BLDC motors from SPG, available from 10 to 90 watt output power, are a complete package at low pricing!  Our tech support department can cross reference Oriental motors for you and the gearhead is included.  Call us today at 800-325-9653!
