Danaher Motion / IDC S22 Stepper Motor Description

Functions

Hybrid stepper motor operates on two phases, features high-torque output, precise positioning, and low-resonance function. Integrates bipolar drive circuits for efficient power consumption. Interfaces via standard NEMA connectors, allowing compatibility with various motor controllers and simple interfacing with PLCs and microcontrollers through pulse and direction control signals. Supports closed-loop systems when paired with encoders. Suitable for automation, CNC machines, and robotics requiring high precision. Operates within specified step angle and holding torque parameters, engineered for durability and low maintenance.

Platforms

Designed for hybrid stepper motor control, this equipment operates within Danaher Motion's IDC SmartStep platform, supporting precise current, anti-resonance, and inductance adjustments via an integrated keypad interface. It connects to stepper motors through dedicated drive terminals, facilitating microstepping control to optimize torque and reduce motor heating. Applications include positioning and motion control in automated machinery where high accuracy and repeatability are essential. The hardware platform integrates with other motion control components and supports field-configurable parameters to match motor electrical characteristics and enhance dynamic performance.

Applications

Stepper motor designed for precise motion control applications. Provides incremental rotational movement in discrete steps, offering accurate positioning without feedback sensors. Utilized in automation systems, CNC machines, robotics, and precision equipment where controlled movement is essential. Features include high torque at low speeds, excellent positioning accuracy, and compatibility with standard stepper drive systems. Typically implemented in open-loop control systems where precise incremental movement is required without the complexity of closed-loop feedback.

Accessories

Requires DC power supply (12-48VDC typical), stepper motor driver/controller with pulse and direction inputs. Motor features 8-wire configuration allowing series, parallel, or unipolar connection. Standard NEMA 23 mounting pattern with 4 threaded holes. Shaft: 0.25" (6.35mm) diameter with flat key. Flying leads or optional MS connector with 8 pins for phase connections. Compatible with microstepping drives supporting 2-phase bipolar stepper motors. May require encoder feedback cable if equipped with optional encoder. Heat sink mounting recommended for continuous operation above 2A/phase.

Interfaces

DB9 female connector for motor power and control signals including step, direction, and enable inputs. Two 8-pin RJ45 connectors for daisy-chaining multiple drives via RS-485 serial communication. 4-pin Phoenix contact terminal block for 24-48 VDC power input. 6-pin Phoenix contact terminal block for motor phase connections (A+, A-, B+, B-) and ground. DIP switch bank for setting motor current, microstepping resolution, and idle current reduction. Two LED indicators for power and fault status.

Specifications

Electric two-phase, 22-frame size hybrid stepper motor designed for precise microstepping motion control applications. Features standard NEMA mounting configuration, high torque-to-inertia ratio, and optimized step angle accuracy.
