Overview

三洋電機は、業界をリードするトルクとコンパクトなデザインを持つ5フェーズステッピングモーターを開発しました

Flagship features

  • This is a closed-loop stepping system (motor + driver), not a full robot arm
  • Key differentiators: eliminates step-out (desynchronization), zero micro-vibration during stop, reduced motor heating, low vibration
  • Features automatic switching between closed-loop control (during rotation) and open-loop control (during stop)
  • High torque at low speed enables short positioning times and downsizing
  • PC interface software enables easy configuration and monitoring of position/speed
  • Includes protection features: alarms for voltage, load, temperature anomalies
