The high-torque, 2-phase or 5-phase PKP Series bipolar stepper motors and geared type stepper motors offer the optimum performance, more variety of electrical specifications, frame sizes, encoder options and electromagnetic brake options for the right solution in stepper motors.
High-Torque PKP Series Stepper Motors
After revising the magnetic design and structure design of the PKP Series, it produces much more torque than the conventional motors of the same size. In addition, torque can be increased in the high-speed range by using high current motors.
Reduced Power Consumption and Heat Output
If the running current of a PKP Series stepper motor is decreased and the motor is operated at the same torque as the PK Series standard type, current consumption and heat output can be reduced.
Downsizing
The PKP Series stepper motors provide torque equivalent to a stepper motor of the next larger frame size, contributing to downsizing of equipment.
Utilizing Hybrid Stepper Motor Technology
A hybrid stepper motor is a combination of the variable reluctance and permanent magnet type motors. The rotor of a hybrid stepper motor is axially magnetized like a permanent magnet stepper motor, and the stator is electromagnetically energized like a variable reluctance stepper motor. Both the stator and rotor are multi-toothed. A hybrid stepper motor has an axially magnetized rotor, meaning one end is magnetized as a north pole, and the other end a south pole. Toothed rotor cups are placed on each end of the magnet, and the cups are offset by half of a tooth pitch.
