αSTEP

Pulse driver with RS-485 communications for monitoring such motor actions as position, torque output, speed, alarms, and temperature. Wire the driver up for conventional Pulse and Direction control. Use the RS-485 connection for monitoring back to your host PLC. The αSTEP AZD driver contributes to quick positioning operations over a short distance while providing smooth performance. The AZ Series mini Driver works with a variety of αSTEP AZ Series, DC input products. The mini Driver is also designed to be close to the motor, making it ideal for Robotic type applications. The elimination of switches and I/O connectors allows for a compact and lightweight design. The mini Driver utilizes the MEXE02 Support Software, which is available for free download.
