Couple the small package size and ability to operate motors at various current levels, and you have a motor ideal for applications in automotive instruments and controls, medical/laboratory equipment, such as micro pipettes, fluid dispensers, pumps and syringes, as well as portable printers and scanners.
Additionally, the motor features and robustness have created universal applications in markets as diverse as surface mount component delivery systems, parking meters, instrumentation and industrial controls.
Other key specifications include: 1.25W input power per winding; an 18-degree step angle (20 step/rev), with +/-1.5-degree step angle tolerance; holding torque of 11.3mNm with two phases energised (bipolar version); and permanently lubricated sintered bronze bearings as standard.
Ball bearings are available for special application requirements.
Both unipolar and bipolar devices are available for use with 5 and 12V supplies, with a maximum operating temperature of 100C.
