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]
Astrosyn launches advanced three phase motor with driver(25/02/2008)
Stepper motors are commonly seen in two or four phase designs, but Astrosyn International Technology has launched an advanced three phase motor with driver. The three phase layout enables the stepper motor to have a very quiet, smooth operation as well as high accuracy, with a step angle of 1.2 deg compared with the usual 1.8 deg. The Nema size 24 motor has six inputs, rather than the four or eight wires usually found in stepper motors. ... [more]
New Astrosyn interlocking heatsink enclosures(30/10/2007)
A range of interlocking heatsink enclosures is now available from Astrosyn. The Lawtronics HSK extruded aluminium units consist of two sliding channels together with end panels. This arrangement enables the electronics to be worked on in situ when the top half of the casing is slid open. The free-standing or 3U rack mount models provide a rugged, low thermal impedance housing for sensitive electronics. The standard units are large enough to ... [more]
