Oriental Motor AZ Series Stepper Motor Features
- Advanced Technology at Affordable Prices
Oriental Motor has developed and patented a compact, low-cost, battery-free mechanical type absolute sensor. The AlphaStep AZ Series is available at affordable prices and can contribute to improved productivity and cost reductions. Mechanical-Type Encoder (No Battery Required)
A mechanical sensor composed of multiple gears is employed. Positioning information is detected by recognizing the angle of the individual gears. As a result, it does not require a battery.
- Multiple-Rotation Absolute System
Absolute position detection is possible with ±900 rotations (1800 rotations) of the motor shaft from the home position. Home Setting Method
The home position can be easily set by pressing a switch on the driver's surface, which is saved by the Mechanical Absolute Encoder. In addition, a home setting is possible with the MEXE02 data setting software or external input signal.
The home position is easy to adjust by moving the motor to a desired position manually.
