The CubeMars RO100 KV55 Lite is a high-performance frameless brushless DC outrunner motor, engineered specifically for robotics, cobot joints, exoskeletons, and medical and aviation devices. As part of the advanced RO Series, this motor stands out with its enhanced torque, ultra-low cogging, and innovative hollow through-hole design—offering superior integration within tight and demanding spaces.
Building on the robust foundation of the R Series, the RO100 KV55 Lite incorporates a larger hollow shaft for maximum flexibility, lightweight aluminum alloy construction for impact and corrosion resistance, and integrated Hall and temperature sensors for real-time feedback and protection. Its ultra-low cogging torque and high efficiency (up to 92.6%) make it ideal for precision applications where smooth and reliable motion is critical.
Highlights
• Rated voltage 48V - KV55
• Ultra-low cogging torque
• Increased large hollow through-hole design
• High adaptability, switch the shaft for versatile usage
• Rated torque 4Nm
• Equipped with Hall and temperature sensors
• Mainly used in exoskeleton robots, collaborative robotic arms, as well as in medical and aerospace fields.
Features
Ultra-Low Cogging Torque
The RO series motor exhibits 50% lower tooth count torque compared to the R series, ensuring smoother operation at low speeds.
Large Hollow Through-Hole
In comparison to the GL series, the RO series motor boasts a larger hollow diameter, adapting flexibly to various diameter requirements, allowing for versatile applications with a simple shaft replacement.
Integrated Temperature and Hall Sensors
Real-time monitoring of motor temperature prevents damage due to abnormal temperatures, and precise positioning control is provided through Hall sensors.
Aluminum Alloy Housing
The rotor of the RO series adopts an aluminum alloy housing, enhancing impact resistance, corrosion resistance, and providing various customization possibilities for appearance. This also improves transparency in controlling raw material costs.
Easy Installation
Stator features pin holes for easy assembly, and the product is equipped with magnetic pins and screws, greatly simplifying the installation process.
