Three phase stepper motor and driver is smooth
Stepper motors are commonly seen in two or four phase designs, but Astrosyn International Technology has launched an advanced three phase motor with driver, offering smooth operation
"A novel feature is that the motors can operate down to speeds as low as 180 rpm," commented Simon Hunt, the Astrosyn technical sales director.
"This means that a gearbox may not be required, leading to space and cost savings".
Available in small to medium volumes, the motors are designed to withstand extreme conditions.
Standard ranges cover protection classes IP20 to IP65, but fully submersible IP68-rated models are also available.
There is also a wide range of options, including brakes, encoders, gearboxes and electronic speed controllers.
