Astrosyn high torque stepper motors now available with adaptable rear shaft
(30/12/2009)

L280RE high torque stepper motors from Astrosyn International Technology are available with an adaptable rear shaft which can be fitted with an accessory such as a brake or encoder. The rear shafts of the heavy duty L280RE models have a drilled recess in their end, enabling a custom diameter shaft extension to be attached. The Nema size 34 stepper motors are also exceptional in offering high torque outputs of up to 10 Nm. This is achieved thro... [more]

Design flexibility with hollow shaft stepper motors from Astrosyn International Technology
(05/10/2009)

Hollow shaft stepper motors from Astrosyn International Technology are available in NEMA 17, 23, 34 and 42 frame sizes, and with full step angles of 0.9 or 1.8 deg. The hollow shafts offer design engineers increased flexibility and enable more compact designs for rotating assemblies where a 'split ring' type connection is required. Wires, fibre optics, laser beams, pneumatics, liquids etc can cross the plane of rotation through the shaft. T... [more]

MY4304-01 three phase stepper motor is capable of exceptionally quiet operation with a low level of vibration for stage lighting
(25/09/2009)

The smooth running MY4304-01 three phase stepper motor from Astrosyn International is suitable for the pan and tilt control of stage and other entertainment lighting. Unlike the more common two or four phase stepper motors, the three phase design is capable of exceptionally quiet operation with a low level of vibration, making it ideal for this type of application. A further advantage is its higher precision, with a full step angle of 1.2 deg ... [more]

F87 series stepper motors from Astrosyn can operate in harsh or even submerged conditions
(30/06/2009)

A range of rugged stepper motors with IP68 protection ratings has been introduced by Astrosyn International Technology. Intended for operation in harsh, wet environments, the F87 series have been tested underwater to a pressure of 1 bar - corresponding to a water depth of 10 m. The Nema size 34 motors are ideal for use in the food processing industry, where process equipment has to be regularly washed down and decontaminated. Other application... [more]

Astrosyn International Technology introduces high performance permanent magnet stepper motors
(02/01/2009)

The use of PM stepper motors offers manufacturers the advantages of simple construction, high thrust and low price. Astrosyn International Technology has introduced a wide range of high performance permanent magnet stepper motors. Step angles range from 18 deg to as small as 1.8 deg for the largest models, a resolution normally seen only with hybrid stepper motors. Outside diameters range from as small as 6 mm through to 55 mm. Several dif... [more]

New stepper motor driver from Astrosyn offers three modes of control
(06/11/2008)

The new MSST5-S stepper motor driver from Astrosyn International Technology is similar in price to traditional 5A step-and-direction microstepping drives, but offers three modes of control: step-and-direction; internal oscillator speed control; and full-blown PC or PLC software control. Software control allows it to be set up for running pre-coded routines repeatably, but it can also be useful to use this PC control to carry out on-line optim... [more]
