Piezo Sonic's PSM60N-ET ultrasonic motor. Motor (front) and driver (back)

Piezo Sonic's PSM60N-ET ultrasonic motor. Motor (front) and driver (back)

Piezo Sonic (Setagaya-ku, Tokyo) has released a high-torque ultrasonic motor, the PSM60N. The ultrasonic motor rotates by minute vibrations and frictional force. Since it does not use coils and magnets, it can be used in high magnetic field environments such as magnetic resonance tomography (MRI) systems.The company's ultrasonic motor uses a piezoelectric element to vibrate a ring with a comb-shaped slit. When the rotor (rotating body) is brought into contact with the ring, the vibration of the teeth is transmitted to the rotor, which rotates. The comb tooth structure amplifies the vibration. We chose a material with high friction to increase the torque. The maximum torque is 1.2 Newton meters, which is 5 to 10 times higher than a DC motor of the same size. The motor is also equipped with an optical encoder. (Photo taken on December 4, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images)

Helical gears manufactured using a new method of vibration press

Helical gears manufactured using a new method of vibration press

Amada Holdings (HD) has developed a method to reduce the machining time of gears used in transmissions with Subaru by 75% and the total cost by 30% compared to the conventional method. The new method replaces machining with presses instead of machine tools. A servo press machine with a high degree of freedom in control presses the material intermittently as if it were vibrating. The company devised a method of pressurizing the material and filling the dies with oil. The company aims to put this new method to practical use as soon as possible, as it enables mass production of high-precision gears at low cost. This is a new method of fluid pulse forging for helical gears (helical gears) with diagonal tooth threads, and is the result of Amada Orii (Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture), an affiliate of Amada HD, and Subaru. A related patent has been jointly applied for. (Photo taken on June 7, 2019, location unknown, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images)
