Greenville, Delaware – Integrated Step Motors fuse step motor plus drive and control components into a single device. Integrated steppers offer a space-saving design that reduces wiring and saves on cost over separate motor and drive components.
Suited for applications such as packaging and labeling, automated test and measurement, and automated assembly, StepSERVO motors from Applied Motion Products provide the next evolution in integrated step motor technology. Starting with a proven integrated motor design, a high-resolution incremental encoder and closed-loop servo firmware are added. StepSERVO motors offer high-torque-at-low-speed and holding torque characteristics of open loop stepping motors with true closed-loop control. These advantages include the ability to create peak torques from the motor up to 50% higher than the normal torque range of the same step motor running open loop. Closed-loop means the motor only draws current when needed, so step motors now run cooler than before.
