Automatically optimised
03 December 2015
Astrosyn’s new compact P756 drive incorporates automatically optimised micro stepping for smooth low speed operation, which reduces mechanical wear and increases the service life of the entire drive train.Stepper motors driven by the P756 achieve high angular resolution and low levels of noise and vibration.
Rated for a working voltage of 24-75V DC, the P756 incorporates sixteen levels of microstepping resolution down to a minimum of 51,200 steps per rotation. A versatile drive current range from 2.5-6A/phase makes the module suitable for high power applications, and both small and large stepper motor frame sizes.
The P756 incorporates a self-test function to monitor drive performance, an alarm output signal, input signal filtering, and auto-current reduction. It also features protection against out-of-range voltage and current inputs. The housing presents a compact fascia of 34 x 123mm, with a rear projection of 78mm.
