Stepping Motor with Encoder
When open-loop control is not enough
Stepping systems provide precise positioning with easy control. By adding an encoder to a stepping motor, the controller can monitor the actual position directly, closing the feedback loop and improving the safety and reliability.
FEATURES
1) Safety: Position verification
Adding an encoder is an ideal and easy
solution for safety-sensitive applications, requiring position verification and position maintenance, such as medical instrumentation.
2) Close-loop control with stepper benefit
High-end close loop control can be achieved while keeping the advantages of stepping motors: stable stop without hunting, higher torque than DC servo motor at low speed over the same size, eliminating the need of gearboxes.
3) Reliability: Stall detection
Device reliability is improved with possible detection and reporting of stalls.
4) Accurate Homing
Encoder with index pulse option can be used to
achieve precise homing.
APPLICATION EXAMPLES
- Blood analyser
- Mammograph
- 3D printing
- Industrial machine
