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
The motor's small size means that output power does not have to be compromised where size constraints only allow the fitting of a size 17 device.
Rare-earth magnets and slightly extended rotors combine to give an exceptional torque performance.
"A further advantage is that the unit is significantly cheaper than larger models of comparable torque," added Simon Hunt, Astrosyn technical sales director.
The MY6405-01 has a length of 50 mm and is available with a step angle of 1.8 deg.
Rapid acceleration profiles resulting from the low rotor inertia make this motor ideally suited for applications in office automation, cash handling, and x-y pick and place systems.
