Microstepping at full-step prices!
Astrosyn's new compact P780 Multi-function Bipolar Drive Module incorporates microstepping at the price levels normally associated with conventional full and half-stepping bipolar drives.
Stepper drive card offers easy connection
Designed to streamline connection of drives, the P700 Unipolar Stepper Drive Card is being manufactured in high volumes by Astrosyn for the UK market.
There is a choice or AC or DC operation, with currents of 1.4 to 10A per phase.
The drives can have simple clock and direction input or programmable control to suit the application.
Other key features of the drives include open- or closed-loop operation, optocoupled inputs and outputs, and overvoltage, undervoltage, short-circuit and overtemperature protection.
"Ever's motor drives are an ideal complement to our existing ranges of stepper motor products", commented Simon Hunt, Astrosyn's technical sales director.
Typical areas of application include packaging, the textile industry, printing, medical equipment (pumps, measurement and control devices), office automation, food and drink (filling and bottling), robotics, tooling and the ceramics industry (serigraphic printing).
Ever has pioneered the application of digital signal processing (DSP) to optimise drive performance.
In addition to achieving smooth, low noise stepper motion at high torque, DSP technology enables extensive diagnostic features to be incorporated, including the ability to interrogate motor parameters.
