AS10xx | Stepper motors
Motion | AS1000 stepper motors
The AS1000 stepper motors with flange sizes from 42 to 86 mm (NEMA17, NEMA23, NEMA34) and torques from 0.4 to 5 Nm are ideally suited to the simpler tasks mentioned above. They are characterised by robustness and high holding torques. Due to the integrated micro-stepping the motors can position very well even without a feedback system and require only a motion terminal for power electronics. Stepper motors can also be operated with TwinCAT NC PTP for synchronisation functions such as cam plates or flying saws.
I/O | Stepper motor terminals
For stepper motor terminals, I/O components with different performance features are available: Bus Terminal (KL2531, KL2541), EtherCAT Terminal (EL7031, EL7041) and EtherCAT Box (EP7041). The KL2531 and EL7031 stepper motor terminals are exclusively designed for 24 V DC power supplies. The motor current can reach up to 1.5 A. The KL2541 and EL7041 stepper motor terminals cover a supply voltage range from 8 to 50 V DC and additionally require a 24 V supply via the power contacts. The motor current can be set from 1 to 5 A. The EP7041 stepper motor module allows the connection of stepper motors up to 50 V DC and 5 A.
