Can-Stack Stepper

15000 15mm

The 15000 Series by Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions is a 15mm stepper motor linear actuator. 15000 series linear actuators are available in two designs - captive and external linear versions. Available in a variety of resolutions, ranging from 0.02mm to 0.10mm per step. The 15000 series can stack stepper motor linear actuators deliver force of up to 8 lbs (35N) without compromising long life or cost. Models also can be micro stepped for even finer resolution. Applications include medical instrumentation, office equipment, appliances, optics, machinery automation and other automated devices which require precise remote controlled linear movements in a very small package size.

New! Encoder option now available! See below dropdown or data sheet for details.

FORCE vs. PULSE RATE
L/R Drive, Bipolar, 25% Duty Cycle
25% Duty Cycle is obtained by a special winding or by running a standard motor at double the rated current.

FORCE vs. PULSE RATE
Chopper Drive, Bipolar, 25% Duty Cycle
8:1 Motor Coil to Drive Supply Voltage
25% Duty Cycle is obtained by a special winding or by running a standard motor at double the rated current.

NOTE: All chopper drive curves were created with a 5 volt motor and a 40 volt power supply.

Ramping can increase the performance of a motor either by increasing the top speed or getting a heavier load accelerated up to speed faster. Also, deceleration can be used to stop the motor without overshoot.

With L/R drives peak force and speeds are reduced, using a unipolar drive will yield a further 30% force reduction.

Haydon® Super Slick Greases

Haydon offers a wide selection of greases designed to meet any application requirements. Please contact Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions for assistance in selecting the most effective lubrication option.

	Grease Type	Chemical Compatibility	Temp. Range	Comments	Cost
HSS-03	Polyolester	Good	-54°C to +150°C	Moderate Load	$
HSS-17	Synthetic Hydrocarbon	Good	-20°C to +125°C	Standard	$
HSS-06	Perfluoropolyether	Best	-65°C to +250°C	Tough Environments	$$
HSS-16	Perfluoropolyether	Better	-80°C to +204°C	Vacuum compatible	$$$
HSS-20	Perfluoropolyether	Best	-65°C to +250°C	High Repeatability	$$$

HSS-03

is a light viscosity, polyolester based grease thickened with PTFE. It is an economical alternative to premium PFPE (perfluoropolyether) types where low temperature performance is a primary requirement as it provides low starting torque.

HSS-17

is a medium viscosity synthetic hydrocarbon grease thickened with lithium soap. It is fortified with EP (extreme pressure) modifiers to increase load carrying capabilities and TFE to increase lubricity and reduce friction. Rated temperature capacity is -20°C to +125°C. HSS-17 has the highest load characteristics.

HSS-06

is a TFE thickened heavy viscosity perfluoropolyether grease. It is designed to operate in chemically harsh environments and provides excellent operating properties for light to medium loads. Rated temperature capacity is -65°C to +250°C. Standard on Hybrid Actuators.

HSS-16

is a perfluoropolyether grease developed for use in vacuum environments good to 4x10–13 torr at 20°C. Rated temperature capacity is -80°C to +204°C.

HSS-20

is an ultrafiltered version of HSS-06, meaning that the grease it put through a ‘cleaning’ process to remove any particles greater than 35 microns in size. It is designed for use when accuracy and repeatability are of utmost concern.

Black Ice® and Kerkote® TFE Coatings

Black Ice and Kerkote TFE coatings are available in some of our actuator designs depending on the nut polymer used. Please consult the applications engineering team to discuss lead screw nut / TFE coating compatibility.
