Step Motors

High performance 2-phase and 5-phase stepping motor, driver and controller packages are suitable for high precision positioning control. Stepping motors are capable of highly precise and reliable operation without the use of position detectors. Motor operation is controlled directly through pulse signals, causing the motor to rotate in steps at fixed angles.

Motor/driver packages are factory matched to provide optimal performance and easy installation.

• The high torque of 2-phase stepping motor makes it possible to drive large equipment and is effective for equipment downswing and for keeping heat generation low. This product line has a wide range of winding specifications that can be used with many driver types. 2-phase stepping motors also come in two basic step angles: standard (1.8°/step) and high resolution (0.9°/step).

• Five-phase stepping motors offer high resolution and low vibration, due the fine step angles of the motor. Up to 873 oz-in of holding torque is available. Microstepping models are also available, providing resolutions as fine as 500,000 steps per revolution !
