We work through a basic actuator sizing example with basic requirements to show what the process is like.
When a stepper motor makes a move from one step to the next, the rotor doesn't immediately stop. the rotor actually passes the final position, is drawn back, passes the final in the opposite direction and continues to move back and forth until it finally comes to a rest. We call this "ringing" and it occurs every single step the motor takes.
In recent years, automated devices such as articulated robots have been getting smaller and lighter thus increasing the need to place drivers closer to the motor to save space. The AZD-KRD compact driver has a smaller volume than the conventional product due to its radical design.
The AlphaStep AZ Series stepper motors offers 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.
This video will illustrate how to set up an IAI RCON EtherCAT Motion with an Omron Machine Automation Controllers N series PLC.
Current data on cyber ransom is alarming. Most companies do not report their attacks because they do not want it to be advertised. This article discusses ways that IT and OT personnel can work together to make your company more secure.
Stepper motors are popular for their ability to stop accurately as well as their ease of use. Both the amount of rotation and the speed are controlled easily with the same digital square wave pulse signal.
Flat type stepper motors are light weight and reduce footprint for applications where space is limited, such as an index table. Both round-shaft and geared versions are available.
High resolution type stepper motors double the full step resolution of standard motors and provides smoother rotation as well as better stop accuracy. See how they can help in a dispensing and an imaging application.
The electromagnetic brake is located in the back and operates separately from the motor.
A lesson for me is that I need to involve you earlier in the program.
You were tireless in your support and it will not be forgotten!
