Microstepping drive for distributed I/O system
Recently launched by Phytron and available from Mclennan - its exclusive UK and Ireland sales partner - the TM StepDrive is designed specifically for the SIMATIC ET 200SP HA distributed and scalable I/O system. The compliance tested microstepping drive is plug and play compatible with the PROFINET-based Siemens PLC, allowing the seamless addition of motion control to automation systems in process control, packaging machinery, pick and place assembly lines and more.
Available as a 24…48V DC supplied microstepping drive with adjustable peak current up to 5A, or as an indexer module with pulse and direction output for interfacing with more powerful external drive stages, the TM StepDrive is programmed from Siemens’ STEP7 or TIA Portal – as an application program or as a Simatic Technology Object.
The Siemens approved stepper motor drive is suitable for 2-phase stepper motors with 4-, 6- or 8-lead wiring and offers selectable microstepping resolution from full-step to 1/256 steps (51.200 pulses per rev).
