MDrive Plus Microstepping, DC Voltage

Stepper motor with integrated drive.

The MDrive Plus Microstepping high torque integrated motor and driver is ideal for designers who want the simplicity of a motor with on-board electronics. The integrated electronics of the MDrive Plus eliminate the need to run motor cabling through the machine, reducing the potential for problems due to electrical noise.
The unsurpassed smoothness and performance delivered by the MDrive Plus Microstepping are achieved through IMS's advanced 2nd generation current control. By applying innovative techniques to control current flow through the motor, resonance is significantly dampened over the entire speed range and audible noise is reduced.

MDrive Plus accepts up to 20 resolution settings from full to 256 microsteps per full step, including: degrees, metric and arc minutes. These settings may be changed on-the-fly or downloaded and stored in nonvolatile memory with the use of a simple GUI which is provided. This eliminates the need for external switches or resistors. Parameters are changed via an SPI port.
