Integrated Stepper Motors & Drives

• DC power supply required (12-48 VDC or 12-70 VDC)
• Pulse/Direction or CW Pulse/CCW Pulse or A/B Quadrature
• Digital input filtering
• “E” models include an encoder
    (externally-wireable for Standard models, internal-only for Advanced models)
• Three optically isolated digital inputs, 5 to 24 volts
• Step input signal smoothing (microstep emulation), performs high resolution stepping by synthesizing coarse steps into fine microsteps
• Dynamic smoothing, software-configurable filtering for use in removing spectral components from command sequence, reduces jerk, limiting excitation of system resonance
• Anti-resonance (electronic damping): raises the system-damping ratio to eliminate midrange instability and allow stable operation throughout the speed range of the motor
• Idle current reduction range of 0-90% of running current after a delay selectable in milliseconds (Standard models = 50/90%, DIP switch selectable)
• Configurable hardware digital noise filter, software noise filter
• Non-volatile storage, configurations are saved in FLASH memory on-board the DSP
• Dynamic current control, software configurable for running current, accel current, idle current, to make motion smoother and the motor run cooler

Advanced Integrated Motor/Drives (STP-MTRD-xR)

• Step and Direction, CW/CCW, and AB Quadrature/Encoder following
• Velocity (Oscillator) and position mode (internal indexing)
• Control via streaming SCL commands over RS-485
• RS-485 ASCII (2- or 4-wire) communications
• On “E” models, the internal encoder provides improved position and speed control
• Four “Variable I/O” points, 5 to 24 volts (NEMA 24 models)
• Analog input for speed and position, 0 to 5 VDC
• Configurable via SureMotion Pro software
• Available torque from 54 to 340 oz-in
• Advanced SureStep motor/drives start at $251.00 (STP-MTRD-23042R)
