DC motor AZ series

stepperwith built-in electromagnetic brakecompact

The AlphaStep AZ Series stepper motors offer high efficiency, low vibration and incorporates our newly developed Mechanical Absolute Encoder for absolute-type positioning without battery back-up or external sensors to buy. Closed loop performance without hunting or gain tuning. Available with a built-in controller or pulse input driver which substantially reduces heat generation from the motor through the use of high-efficiency technology. Requires AlphaStep AZ Series Stepper Motor Driver. • Battery-Free, Mechanical Absolute Encoder • AC or DC Input Types • Parallel Shaft and Right Angle Geared Types for Higher Torque, Space Savings • Electromagnetic Brake Type Available • AlphaStep AZ Series Stepper Motor Driver Required* Oriental Motor has developed and patented a compact, low-cost, battery-free mechanical type absolute sensor. The AlphaStep AZ Series is available at affordable prices and can contribute to improved productivity and cost reductions. A mechanical sensor composed of multiple gears is employed. Positioning information is detected by recognizing the angle of the individual gears. As a result, it does not require a battery. Multiple-Rotation Absolute System* Absolute position detection is possible with ±900 rotations (1800 rotations) of the motor shaft from the home position. Home Setting Method* The home position can be easily set by pressing a switch on the drivers surface, which is saved by the Mechanical Absolute Encoder. In addition, home setting is possible with the MEXE02 data setting software or external input signal.
