New! Step-Servo Linear Integrated Drive with Absolute Encoder
The compact integrated SLIM™ Drive (Step-Servo Linear Integrated Drive) package provides the following performance enhancements:
•
Closed-Loop Control: Step-servo motors use built-in high-resolution encoders to enable closed-loop position control. This eliminates the issue of lost steps that can occur with open-loop stepper systems.
•
Higher Torque Output: Step-servo motors allow for high acceleration and deceleration applications better than standard steppers.
•
Wider Speed Range: Unlike traditional steppers that lose torque at high speeds, step-servo motors maintain high torque across a broader speed range.
•
Reduced Heat Generation: Closed-loop control allows the motor to draw only the current needed, reducing heat generation compared to traditional steppers that use constant high current.
•
Improved Accuracy: The absolute encoder feedback provides precise position measurement, eliminating uncertainties in rotor settling position that can occur with open-loop steppers.
•
Smoother Motion: Closed-loop control results in smoother velocity tracking and reduced vibration compared to traditional stepper operation.
