Press Release

July 26, 2010 - Oriental Motor Introduces Smallest Stepping Motor in PK Lineup

Small frame size makes the PK 20mm perfectly suited for applications in small spaces.

pk

Torrance, CA — July 26, 2010 —Oriental Motor is proud to introduce the newest stepping motor to its stepping motor product line: the PK 20mm, the smallest, lightest weight 1.8º per step stepping motor.  Designed to complement the existing 0.72º stepping motor, the PK 20mm has a 20mm (0.79 in.) frame size and 50g (1.77 oz.) mass, making it perfectly suited for applications with little available space.

The PK 20mm motors are the smallest available stepping motors in the PK Series from Oriental Motor and have a small, lightweight body.  Combined with high torque technology, they are able to meet current and future needs for a compact, space saving stepping motor with multiple step angles and performance characteristics.

The compact and powerful PK 20mm is ideal for applications where size, weight and stack length are important.  With its high torque, the PK 20mm 1.8º produces more torque with a smaller stack length (30mm) than the competition’s (30~33mm).

Product Features:

  • Compact size: 20 mm (0.79 in.) in size
  • Light weight: 50 g (1.77 oz)
  • High Torque:
    • Bipolar 0.020 Nm (2.8 oz-in) - 4 Motor leads
    • Unipolar 0.014 Nm (1.98 oz-in) - 5 Motor leads
  • Single or Double shaft

Oriental Motor offers the widest stepping motor product line up and motor frame sizes in the industry, from 20 mm (0.79 in) to 90 mm (3.54 in) with many powerful performance characteristics. For more information about the PK 20mm or any other stepping motor products available from Oriental Motor, please visit us at www.OrientalMotor.com
