IK Series · GN Gearhead

AC Induction Gearmotors

SIEGMA's primary line of micro AC induction gear motors. Square-frame single- or three-phase induction motors paired with long-life, low-noise parallel-shaft GN gearheads. Built for continuous-duty industrial use across a 3 W to 200 W power band.

Key Features

Continuous-duty by design.

Single & three-phase

Capacitor-run single-phase units, or three-phase units for higher starting torque and efficiency.

Adjacent Lines

Reversible, brake, and 2-pole variants.

The IK induction lineup is the primary product on this catalog page. The same motor platform also supports several factory variants documented in the source catalog.

RK reversible motors

Built-in friction brake (spring-loaded disk) for instant-reversal duty. Keeps ~10% of rated torque when stopped and shortens over-run to 4–6 cycles depending on frame.

Electromagnetic brake

Power-off-activated brake variants offer 0.05–2.0 N·m brake torque. Stops and reverses the motor up to 6 times per minute (each cycle ≥ 3 s).

2-pole high-speed

Bare 2-pole induction motors covering 6 W to 150 W in 60 / 70 / 80 / 90 mm frames. Rated speeds in the 2600–3200 r/min range.

Speed-control units

Bundled motor + controller for potentiometer-adjustable operation between 90–1400 r/min @ 50 Hz or 90–1700 r/min @ 60 Hz.

Applications

Where IK series fits.

General-purpose industrial drives for conveyors, indexers, packaging machinery, and food processing equipment (an oil-cup option is available to prevent oil leakage in food-machinery use). Three-phase units are well suited to higher-load applications needing strong starting torque.
