AZ Series \u2013 Hybrid Stepper Motors with Mechanical Absolute Encoder<\/p>\n
The AZ Series combines hybrid stepper motor technology with a built-in, battery-free mechanical multi-turn absolute encoder (ABZO sensor). This enables absolute positioning over \u00b1900 (or \u00b11,800) revolutions without the need for external sensors. Motors run open-loop under normal operation for smooth, vibration-free motion and switch automatically to closed-loop control under load changes to ensure reliable positioning without loss of synchronism.<\/p>\n
Key Features
\n\u2022 Integrated STO function for AC and DC input voltage drivers (depending on model)<\/p>\n
\u2022 Battery-free mechanical multi-turn absolute encoder (ABZO) integrated as standard<\/p>\n
\u2022 Absolute positioning range: \u00b1900 (standard) or \u00b11,800 (extended) revolutions<\/p>\n
\u2022 Open-loop operation for quiet running; closed-loop engagement for overload conditions<\/p>\n
\u2022 Frame sizes: 20 mm, 28 mm, 42 mm, 60 mm, and 90 mm<\/p>\n
\u2022 Gearhead options: spur gearheads, planetary gearheads, Harmonic Drive\u00ae<\/p>\n
\u2022 Wide variety of actuators available: linear actuators, rotary actuators, grippers, and more<\/p>\n
\u2022 Control flexibility: pulse-direction input, digital I\/O, or fieldbus communication (EtherCAT, EtherNet\/IP, PROFINET, Modbus RTU)<\/p>\n
\u2022 Integrated monitoring and diagnostic functions for reliable system operation<\/p>\n
\u2022 Optional electromagnetic brake for holding loads in vertical applications<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
