Product Profile of Stepper Motors & Digital Linear Actuators
An iso 9001 company, ucam, is one of the foremost manufacturer and distributor of "linear motion products" for the machine building and factory automation applications. Stepper motors & digital linear actuators are special motors with unique features.
- Stepper motor is a device used to convert electrical pulses into discrete mechanical movements. Stepper motors are 2 phase permanent magnet motors, which provide discrete angular movement every time the polarity of winding is changed.
- Digital linear actuators are modified rotary stepper motors with rotors that include molded threads that mate to an externally threaded shaft [lead screw]. Rotary motion is converted to linear movement, with travel per step determined by the pitch of the lead screw & step angle of the motor.
Features of both the stepper motors and digital linear actuators are as follows:
- High linear resolution in a complete solution package
- Deal for fast & precise positioning
- Available in 3 package sizes based on ø26mm, ø35mm & ø57mm stepper motors.
- Available in linear travel per step 0.001" [0.25mm] to 0.004" [0.182mm]
- Available with output force up to 20lb [89n].
