These stepper motors have incremental encoders for position feedback. Position sensing is performed by a 1000 line optical encoder providing 4000 edge changes per revolution. As soon as a position deviation occurs, the electronics compensate immediately: no step loss occurs. This 2-phase closed-loop, encoder motor is designed to work with the Leadshine CS-D508 hybrid servo controller and requires an encoder extension cable, available in several lengths. Together with these controllers, the drive forms a closed-loop system that combines high dynamics, high torque for its size and low heat generation. Due to the encoder-position feedback, there is no additional step loss. This product combines the advantages of stepper motor drive and servo drive, such as.
In most cases, these drives are ready for immediate use and do not require complex tuning, such as servo motors, for stable operation.
