Ideal for applications where compactness is important, but also cost, a stepper motor with onboard driver and controller saves 25% in lower system integration costs.
Weighing in at only 45g.and packaged in a totally enclosed PCB mountable block makes the Whistle the most densely packed digital servo drive in its class on the market.
The Whistle can operate as a fully programmable stand-alone device or as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed configuration on a real time network using CANopen DS 301, DS 402 communications.
The Whistle operates from an 11-95V DC power source in current, velocity, position and advanced position modes, in conjunction with permanent magnet synchronous brushless motors or DC brushed motors.
