All stepper motors are delivered with a machined flat motor shaft (D-cut) for increased torque resistance. igus offers high-performance stepper motors with a metric connector or stranded wire in five NEMA installation sizes.

Stepper motors from igus® are maintenance-free and durable, and can be extended with brakes and encoders. They work reliably at temperatures between -10 and +50°C.
Their advantages include the fact that they are compatible with the most common motor control systems and that positioning is also possible without an encoder.
They also have a high degree of protection up to IP68.

Configurators to find the right electric motor for your application

Ensuring you have the right motor to power your linear sytem is crucial. 

We have designed configurators to help with these decisions. 

In a few simple steps you can find the best motor for your application based on the critera and details you provide.
 

A motor control system is an essential part in automation. The motor controllers are used to operate the electric motors to create movement. These devices work in conjunction with a switchboard or multiple switchboards which controls the movement and powers the motor. 

We have a range of motor control systems which work with different motors; such as stepper motors, direct current motors and DC motors. These control systems can pre determine travel, positions, speeds and operating times. You can click here for more inforrmation on the motor control systems

A few example combinations: using the stepper motor D1 via a control system that is based on a web interface or the D3 DC motor control system, both make it possible to easily control linear systems.The systems are simple and offer intuitive user interface as well as being compatible with many industrial control systems.
We also offer free sample programs with each of the motor control systems so you can try the programming software for yourself. Click here for more information on the sample programs

Matching cables

An item that is sometimes overlooked when buying an electric motor is the cables. We have a range of cables that are suited for all of our motors.

 

How are you powering your system?

We have a variety of power supplies ranging from 75W up to 960W. 
The drylin® power supplies for automation are suitable for all dryve motor controls. They supply output currents in order to be able to operate the entire igus® motor series. The 24V output voltage is typically used to supply stepper and DC-motors, as well as EC/BLDC motors.
The complete automation machine including the main control such as PLC (programmable logic controller) or IPC (industrial PC) can also be supplied.
The 48V power supplies are recommended for higher speeds with stepper or EC/BLDC motors. The power supplies are installed in the control cabinet on a DIN rail (TS-35).
To ensure safe operation, protective functions such as overload, overvoltage and overtemperature have been integrated.
