maxon EC 8 Miniature Brushless Motors
maxon EC 8 is an 8 mm brushless motor family for very small mechanisms. This review uses the documented 2 W Hall-sensor configuration 384406 as a legacy reference, with its actual operating data and orderability kept separate from older family headlines.
Review Summary
EC 8 is relevant when evaluating an installed miniature drive or defining a replacement requirement. The manufacturer states that example part 384406 can no longer be ordered. For a new product, identify a supported motor and controller combination, then qualify the same load, space and thermal duty.
Motor format 8 mm diameter brushless motor; external drive required Example identity 384406; 2 W type-power class; Hall-sensor commutation Example nominal voltage 6 V Example nominal speed and torque 24,000 rpm and 0.977 mNm Example nominal current 0.691 A; torque is not measured in amperes Example no-load / maximum speed 35,900 / 80,000 rpm; separate conditions Example mass 6 g Example lifecycle Manufacturer states 384406 can no longer be ordered Applications and Industries
