Motion Checkers

Sept. 14, 2006
Motion Checker MCH-5 is a RoHScompliant, palm-sized stepper-motor controller with an internal 2-ph constant-voltage driving circuit.

A front panel lets operators control rotation direction, speed, position, operating mode, stop time, and homing. Motion profiles can run a set number of times or indefinitely. The checker also connects to external driving circuits controlled by pulse/direction output signals and connects to external inputs. The internal driver is intended for tincan type stepper motors and comes in a bipolar (400-mA rated, 700-mA pk) or unipolar (250-mA rated, 400-mA pk) driver configuration.
