That’s the answer to one of the more common questions we get at Applied Motion. We maintain inventory in our California warehouse as a commitment to zero lead time for our most popular set of step motors. The CORE step motors are the best choice to match with our drives and have been fully characterized with speed-torque curves with recommended drives. Speed-torque curves are important for every project because they are the most accurate representation of performance for a given motor and drive combination.

Many industrial and commercial applications benefit from the performance improvements of StepSERVO™ closed loop stepper technology, but none may be so pronounced as the benefits achieved in 3D printing.

3D Platform® has been using Applied Motion’s traditional, open loop integrated step motors on their large format 3D printers for several years now. Beginning this year, 3D Platform is launching their next generation of 3D printers with new technology called SurePrint™.

Visit Applied Motion in booth #4180 at the ATX West trade show being held February 9-11, 2016 in Anaheim, CA. See the StepSERVO™ closed loop stepper systems in action and learn how these exciting new products can provide you with more torque and higher acceleration rates while running cooler and quieter than traditional step motor systems. You'll also have a chance to see the new SV200 digital servo drives in person.

Servo amplifiers need to be tuned to optimize performance for each application. This normally straightforward task can be complicated if the speed and torque requirements vary greatly during machine operation, for instance when there are distinct loaded and unloaded states. The SV200 Series Servo Drives provide a couple of useful options to resolve this dilemma.
