JVL ServoStep integrated stepper motors

The latest generation of integrated stepper motors from JVL, ServoStep, advances previous designs, incorporating users’ feedback.

Each unit includes the motor, drive electronics, encoder, motion controller and an easily programmed embedded PLC with eight I/O points onboard. The motors can operate as standalone units or be controlled from a master PLC or PC. The eight I/O points can be individually configured as digital inputs, digital outputs or analog inputs.

Popular options include absolute multiturn encoders, CANopen, double shafts, hollow shafts, electromechanical brakes (front or rear mounted), IP protection class up to IP65, customised connectors and safe torque off (STO) input. Wireless options are also available for Bluetooth, Zigbee and WLAN, making them suitable for AGVs and other battery-powered applications.
