With a Plug & Drive PD2-N integrated closed loop stepping motor, Nanotec expanded its offering of integrated stepper motors with closed loop sine commutation. With a Plug & Drive PD2-N integrated ...

They do this with greater efficiency and less motor heating because motor phase currents are regulated up and down according to need. Performance of the closed-loop steppers are similar to servo ...

Stepper motor linear actuators (SMLAs) combine a stepper motor, precision lead screw and nut in one compact envelope, providing a highly configurable, customizable and robust system for linear motion.

This White Paper will explain the three methods that are used to close the feedback loop around stepper motors in a control system. These three methods include ways to close the loop around a stepper ...

In addition to motors and controllers, a rotary encoder is the third essential module in the software and hardware for closed loop applications. In addition to motors and controllers, a rotary encoder ...

Open-loop stepper motors have held a prominent position in automation applications over the years due to their simplicity, excellent positioning, and low cost. However, as manufacturers utilize faster ...

High guiding accuracy and stiffness due to ball screws and crossed roller guides. Stress-relieved aluminum base for highest stability. Vacuum versions available on request. Noncontact limit and ...

When you think about highly-precise actuators, stepper motors probably aren’t the first device that comes to mind. However, as [Diffraction Limited]’s sub-micron capable micro-manipulator shows, they ...

Is your motor spinning at the intended rate? Closed-loop motor control systems continue to answer this question, as there tends to be a closed-loop system implemented wherever a motor spins. Whether ...

One of the more critical decisions engineers can make when designing any type of motion control process is choosing the motor. Getting the right motor, both in terms of type and size, is imperative to ...
