Integrated microstepping motor & drive
03 September 2013
US motion control specialist, Applied Motion Products (AMP), represented exclusively by Mclennan Servo Supplies, has launched a new low-cost version of its STM series NEMA 17 and 23 frame stepper motors with integrally mounted microstepping drive and control.

The new STM-R strips down the choice of control options available through the range to offer only step and direction or cw/ccw pulse control modes. Offering value for OEM applications, the units are designed for use with an external controller that would typically provide one of these types of step/pulse signals.
STM-R integrated steppers include 3 digital inputs that accept pulse/direction and enable/disable motor power signals at 5-24 VDC. A single digital output is included for drive and motor fault.
