DESCRIPTION
The MDrive42AC Plus Microstepping high torque integrated motor and step and direction driver is ideal for designers who want the simplicity of a motor with on- board electronics. The integrated electron- ics of the MDrive42AC Plus eliminate the need to run motor cabling through the ma- chine, reducing the potential for problems due to electrical noise.
The unsurpassed smoothness and per- formance delivered by the MDrive42AC Plus Microstepping are achieved through IMS's advanced 2nd generation current control. By applying innovative techniques to control current flow through the motor, resonance is significantly dampened over the entire speed range and audible noise is reduced.
The MDrive42AC Plus accepts a broad input voltage range from 95 to 264 VAC, delivering enhanced performance and speed. Oversized input capacitors are used to minimize power line surges, re- ducing problems that can occur with long runs and multiple drive systems. An ex- tended operating range of
The MDrive42AC Plus uses a NEMA 42 frame size high torque brushless step mo- tor combined with a microstepping driver, and accepts up to 20 resolution settings from full to 256 microsteps per full step, in- cluding: degrees, metric and arc minutes. These settings may be changed
For use in environments where exposure to chemical, dust and liquids may occur,
a sealed MDrive42AC Plus Microstepping unit with circular connectors meets IP65 specifications.**
The versatile MDrive42AC Plus Micro- stepping is available in multiple configu- rations to fit various system needs. Two rotary motor lengths are available and may include an internal optical encoder, a control knob for manual positioning or an integrated planetary gearbox.
new Interface connections are accomplished using standard industrial circular connec- tors. And connectivity has never been easier with options ranging from
The MDrive42AC Plus is a compact, pow- erful and cost effective solution that will reduce system cost, design and assembly time for a large range of brushless step motor applications.
