Minimize noise and vibration
The low-noise planetary gearboxes of the GP56-N series are ideally suited for use in medical devices and building automation. They come in nine versions, with one or two stages.
Motion control solutions
Brake for wheel drives
For applications that require repeated and dynamic braking, the WD wheel drives are now available with a pre-mounted motor brake. Just select the required reduction ratio and a matching motor.
Robust stepper motor with encoder
This stepper motor for mechanical engineering applications is very compact yet offers a very high torque. It comes with an encoder and can be ordered with and without an integrated brake.
Anti-backlash nuts with torsion spring
The LSNUT-AGAC and LSNUT-AGAE threaded nuts eliminate the axial backlash of the screw drive and readjust themselves during operation. They can be used with Nanotec’s external linear actuators.
NEMA 6 Stepper motor
With a flange size of only 14 mm the stepper motor STA1418 is ideal for applications with space limitations such as in the medical industry, in lab automation or optical technologies.
New PD4-E/EB with brake
The PD4-E/EB brushless DC motors with integrated controller are now available in a version with integrated holding brake. They are ideally suited for use in Z axes and robotics applications.
Flat motors with encoder
The external rotor BLDC motors DFA90 and DFA68 are now available with an integrated inductive 3-channel encoder with 4,096 CPR. Combine them with a Nanotec motor controller and gearbox.
Captive linear actuator with 56 mm flange
Due to its optimized design the LGA56 linear actuator reaches speeds of up to 150 mm/s. Nanotec offers a number of thread types, stroke lengths and thread leads to choose from.
Firmware update available now!
Plug & Drive Studio 2.1 comes with a firmware update that includes new features: processing of input from multiple sensors, slow speed mode, user-defined SI units and normalized PI parameters.
Geared motor for small spaces
Combining Nanotec’s brushless DC motor DFA68 with the new high-torque planetary gearbox GP56 results in a very short geared motor with torques of up to 26Nm.
High-performance motor controller
The CL4-E motor controller is characterized by high performance and compact design. It has a peak power of 1050 W and operates at 58 V. Additional heat sinks are not required.

Nanotec is among the TOP 100!
In the independent TOP 100 benchmarking competition, Nanotec convinced the jurors with its innovation management, placing it among the top innovators in Germany in 2021.
Autonomous field robot
„Goliath“ the robot was constructed by students at the University of Hohenheim to autonomously perform various agricultural tasks in the field. For the steering system Nanotec motors were used.
Linear Actuators – Types and function
What are the different types of linear actuator and how do they differ? How do I find the right lead screw and why is the thread lead so important? Our experts will answer these questions.
Captive linear actuators – how they work
The integrated linear guide is the main characteristic of captive linear actuators. The lead screw travels back and force in a linear motion as our video shows. Just watch.
Non-captive linear actuators – design
Linear actuators without linear guide need an external guide to prevent the lead screw from rotating. Watch our video to learn more about the movement of the rotor and the lead screw.
External linear actuators – how they work
The threaded nut traverses back and force on the lead screw and is secured against rotating by an external guide. Play our video for more details.
