Product Details

STM28

The STM28 series integrated stepper motor is a step product independently developed by NiMotion. With its excellent closed-loop control system and integrated development concept, the stepper motor, encoder, driver and digital IO are integrated into one. Support can, CANopen, RS485 communication bus control, small size, simple wiring.


Product Features

Highly integrated design

All-in-one design deeply integrating the motor body with the drive and encoder, giving a compact body, simple wiring and easier machine integration.

High Precision Encoder Feedback

Built-in 14-bit high-resolution absolute encoder (closed-loop support) provides real-time position and speed feedback for more accurate closed-loop control, ensuring smoother operation and more accurate positioning.

Multi-bus communication support

Supports CANopen and RS485 communication, allowing quick connection to mainstream PLCs, motion controllers and host systems, with flexible networking and easy expansion.

Standard CiA 402 Sport Mode

Supports CiA 402 standard motion modes (PP, PV, HM, CSP, CSV, etc.) as well as position mode, velocity mode and homing mode, ensuring compatibility with mainstream fieldbus motion-control architectures and making replacement and commissioning easier.

Wide Voltage Input

Wide input voltage range of 12 -30VDC, suitable for various power-supply environments and giving greater flexibility in system integration and retrofitting.

Segment can be set

Micro-stepping setting of 1、2、4、8、16 steps selectable effectively reduces low-speed vibration and noise and improves positioning resolution and smoothness.

Application in Fully Automatic Pipetting Equipment

The STM28 features a compact size, closed-loop control with no step loss, and a built-in driver. Its core advantages lie in its integrated design and precision control capabilities: the compact form factor supports high-density side-by-side mounting, significantly saving equipment space. The built-in closed-loop encoder, combined with vector drive, delivers absolute positioning and real-time torque compensation, effectively minimizing errors caused by liquid load fluctuations. The highly integrated design simplifies external wiring and driver requirements, reducing system assembly complexity.
