Applied Motion Products: Integrated Stepper Drive+Motors

The models combine a high performance motion controller with 100 Mbit Ethernet communications to a high torque NEMA 24 step motor. Connecting to an Allen-Bradley ControlLogix, CompactLogix or MicroLogix PLC? EtherNet/IP is also available. The units provide up to 340 oz-in of torque and include a 4000 count/rev optical encoder that can detect and prevent motor stalls using the company's stall prevention algorithm. The auto-tuned digital current control provides smooth, quiet motion, while an advanced anti-resonance algorithm with electronic damping allows for maximum torque utilization, rapid acceleration, and fast settling times. The new models are dust proof and resistant to low pressure water jets and suitable for applications in wet factory environments such as the food and beverage industry or outdoor use. Other features include IP67 rated M12 connectors, sealed laminations, a front shaft contact seal and an engineered seal between the electronics compartment and the motor. All models have an internal corrosion-resistant film coating as standard. Mating M12 cordsets are available from stock.
