STEP
MOTORS

ADVANCED MICRO SYSTEMS offers a MOTOR FEATURES ENCODER FEEDBACK

variety of high performance, 2 phase
hybrid step motors. All motors are
o
industry standard 1.8 (200 steps per
revolution), full-step angle construction.
o
Optional .9 (400 steps per revolution),
full-step angle motors are also available.
Each step motor is carefully constructed
with permanently lubricated ball
bearings for extended service life.
All AMS step motors are bipolar drive
compatible. NEMA sizes 23, 34 and 42
motors can be wired with a parallel
winding (standard) or in series for
specific application requirements and
come equipped with a convenient ten
foot shielded cable.
MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS (add -EFB suffix for motor with encoder)
• Rotational angle of the motor rotor is
directly proportional to the number of
input step pulses for movement in full,
half and microstep operations.
• Precise and repeatable position se-
quencing, in open or closed loop appli-
cations.
• Complete range of speed and torque
characteristics.
• Low-cost, high quality alternative to
expensive pneumatic, hydraulic and
servo motor designs.
Most AMS step motors may be ordered
with shaft encoders. High resolution
encoders operate in conjunction with
the “EFB” electronics available in the
MAX microstep controller/driver family.
Benefits include dynamic stall detection
and position maintenance capability. The
EFB suffix includes assembled encoder
and interface cables.
• 50 to 500 lines per/rev, 500 standard
• Quadrature output for 2000 ppr.
• Index pulse used with homing
o
• -40 to 100 (C) operating temperature
• Adds less than 3/4” to motor length
