Stepper motors are popular for their ability to position easily and accurately. The travel amount and the speed can be easily controlled by a digital pulse signal. Unlike servo motors, stepper motors do not require encoders or complicated PID loops to operate. Easy to Use: 34% Inexpensive: 17% Simple Operation: 16% No Tuning: 12% Other: 21% Therefore, […]
The electromagnetic brake is located in the back and operates separately from the stepper motor. When the power is cut off, the electromagnetic brake holds the load in position. Learn how Oriental Motor power off-activated electromagnetic brake stepper motor works and the applications that can benefit from it. Discuss your project with a MSI […]
VIDEO Oriental Motor’s servo motors and stepper motors offer stable operation in high inertia drive and belt mechanism drive applications without gain adjustment using the servo motors. Also, adjusting the gain manually enables operation under even more stringent load conditions. Contact us to learn more.
VIDEO When automated equipment is designed, various factors must be taken into consideration including the production line layout, installation environment, ease of maintenance, configuration of electrical wiring and control system, and so on. This means many man-hours are needed to select the motor and other mechanical components and create a parts list, drawings, operating manuals, […]
