A stepper motor converts digital information/instructions in the form of pulses into proportional mechanical movement - or steps. By varying the frequency of the pulses, the motor speed can be varied. Permanent magnet (PM) stepper motors (tin can versions) exhibit the traditional advantage of low cost construction due to their extremely high-volume, simple design. However, hybrid stepper motors combine exceptionally high performance and torque with very economic pricing. Many hybrid stepper motors are also specifically designed for microstepping to allow resonance and noise effects to be minimised.
MOTION CONTROL PRODUCTS LTD supplies the widest range of stepper motors including PM (permanent magnet) stepper and hybrid stepper - either in rotary or linear formats.
Hybrid Stepper Motors
Our high torque hybrid stepper motors range from 20mm (NEMA size 8) to 110mm (NEMA size 42) and feature a 1.8 degree step angle on all standard motors with 0.9 degree step angle also available from 42mm upwards. All motors can be supplied with single or double ended shaft to customer request. Shaft length, leads, fixings or other dimensions can also be modified on demand...
Hybrid Linear Stepper Motor Actuators
Hybrid linear stepper motor actuators incorporate thermoplastics in the rotor drive nut and a stainless steel acme lead screw, which allows the linear actuator to be much quieter, more efficient and more durable. Our hybrid stepper actuators come in six sizes, from 20mm to 86mm square and have four designs available – captive, non-captive, an external linear version and 'Kaptive' range...
PM (Permanent Magnet) Stepper Motors
Our PM (permanent magnet) stepper motors (rotary version) range from 15mm to 57mm. They have proved ideal in such applications as vending machines, gambling machines, labelling machines and automotive equipment. The linear version is available in 25, 35 and 57mm frame size, with captive and non-captive options...
