Stepper Motor/Driver

The MDrive® from Intelligent Motion Systems, Marlborough, CT, is a quad stack NEMA size 23 brushless 1.8deg stepping motor that delivers speed-torque comparable to a single stack NEMA 34, but with a footprint 1/3 smaller. In addition, the quad stack 23 motor solution costs 20% less than the size 34.

The MDrive23Plus with quad stack motor is capable of full (256 × 200) microstepping with a +12 to +60 VDC integrated driver. Three versions are available: micro stepping with step and direction input, motion control with intelligent programmable controller, and speed control with velocity controller. Operating temperature range is –40° to +85°C.
