Why Direct Drive Technology?
• Direct coupling of the load to the motor
• No compliance between motor and load
• Inertia mismatch is irrelevant (theoretically)
• 1000:1 inertia mismatch applications in place
(standard servo is 10:1)

Frameless - Brushed
• Permanent magnet stator (stationary)
• Wound armature/rotor (rotating)
• Self-commutating
• Limited peak power due
to mechanical
switching that results in
excessive sparking in
DC motors.
• Least torque ripple of
any motor design
Frameless - Brushless
• Wound stator (stationary)
• Permanent magnet armature/rotor (rotating - reduced inertia)
• Commutation is done based on rotor position such that
synchronism is always maintained. This is referred to as selfsynchronism. The motor maintains the ability to deliver torque
regardless of the velocity error.
• High commutation frequencies = high speeds
• Good heat dissipation because the windings are on the outside
• The ability to deliver current based on demand is a key feature of
servos. If the motor is at rest and there is no load, no current is
consumed, and the motor can cool.
• High bus voltage to force current into the windings is available;
mitigates the electrical time constant of the winding
DDR: Direct Drive Rotary
GOLDLINE DDR Features
• Housed motor with bearings
and integrated feedback
• Resolver or sine encoder
feedback
• Single or double bearing
version
• Large thru bore
Typical application:
• Rotary indexing table
•
To replace any mechanical
transmission that is high
maintenance or has short life.
The Benefits of DDR Technology
To gain Benefits of Eliminating Mechanical Transmissions
• Zero maintenance
– No Belts or gears
• Reliability
– Reduce down time
– No transmission parts to
break
• Improved performance
– Increase accuracy up to
50 times
– Eliminate resonance
and oscillation problems
• Clean mechanical
assembly
– Lower parts count
– Reduce assembly
time
• Smooth and quiet
• Hollow shaft option
– Run process thru the
motor

• Best features of a frameless DDR
and a fully housed DDR
• Direct drive servo performance &
zero maintenance, in an easy to
integrate package
• It has no bearings…but it has
everything else
• Feedback is pre-mounted and prealignedat the factory
• Single part number ready to mount
•
Eliminates significant

Cartridge DDR Applications
• Any application where the machine has its own set of
bearings, but still can benefit from the DDR performance
advantages
• Converting:
– Rollers, Coaters, Feeders, Die Cutters
• Other application examples
– Injection molding: IM machine mold indexing
– Press feed: Incremental motion

DDR vs. Mechanical Indexer
Customer identified these advantages of the DDR over the
mechanical indexer they used previously
– Improved Repeatability
– DDR Accuracy and Repeatability do not degrade over
time as with the mechanical indexer
– Can immediately stop DDR motion if there is a process
error
– Greatly reduced audible noise
– Easily change DDR index angle, speed, and dwell
– DDR provides better overall value
