42HS48-1204A-20F NEMA17 5.6 kg-cm Stepper Motor with Detachable Cable – D-Type Shaft
Stepper motors move in precisely repeatable steps, making them the motors of choice for machines requiring precise position control. The NEMA17 5.6 kg-cm Stepper Motor can provide 5.6 kg-cm of torque at 1.2A current per phase. The motor’s position can be commanded to move or hold at one position with the help of Stepper Motor Drivers. The NEMA17 5.6 kg-cm Stepper Motor provides excellent response to starting, stopping, and reversing pulses from the stepper motor driver. These motors are very useful in various applications, especially those that demand low speed with high precision. Many machines, such as 3D Printers, CNC Routers and Mills, Camera Platforms, and XYZ Plotters, utilize stepper motors. The NEMA17 5.6 kg-cm Stepper Motor is a brushless DC motor, so its life depends on the life of the bearings. Position control is achieved by a simple Open Loop control mechanism, eliminating the need for complex electronic control circuitry. It comes with a detachable 72cm cable for easy wiring and rewiring. The design of this cable allows direct mounting on a stepper motor controller.
Stepper Motors
Note:
- The Nema17 5.6kgcm Stepper motor dimensions and weight may have ±2% error.
- Resonances can occur because of improper instalment.
- Not easy to operate at extremely high speeds.
- The cable comes with Motor has connector from one end to connect it to the motor while another end of cable is open for soldering
Features:
- Input pulse decides the rotation angle of the motor.
- High accuracy of around 3 to 5% a step.
- Provides good starting, stopping and reversing.
- Control of this motor is less costly because of exclusion of complex control circuitry.
- The speed is proportional to the frequency of the input pulses.
