Oriental Motor
RBK Series Stepping Motor and Microstep Driver Package (DC Input)
RBK Series

The RBK Series is a stepping motor and driver package consisting of a 1.8° step angle stepping motor and DC input microstepping driver. The RBK Series is available with either a standard, high-torque terminal box, planetary geared stepping motor with optional encoder as a standard offering. The RBK Series offers the highest torque for the entire speed range and includes Oriental Motor's proprietary Smooth Drive Function to easily achieve low-vibration operation.

Wide Voltage Range Driver

RBK Driver

The RBK Series utilizes a constant current driver with a wide voltage range of 20 to 75 VDC (20 to 40 VDC
for High-Torque and Planetary Geared models). This enables it to support a wide range of power sources and raising the power supply voltage enables increased torque during high speed operation.

 

Wide Voltage Range


NOTE: Raising the power supply voltage enables increased torque during high speed operation.

New Price

High Torque Type

The high-torque type adopts new technology and design. The motor produces approximately 30 ~ 50% higher torque than a conventional stepping motor of the same size.

High Torque Type


PS/PL Geared Type

PL Gear

  • Planetary Geared
  • High Permissible Torque
  • In-line Output Shaft
  • Low Backlash [35 arc minutes (0.58°)]
  • Gear ratios: 5:1, 10:1, 36:1*
    (*not available for 28mm)

Terminal Box Type

terminal box

  • Conforms to IP65 standard
  • Protects against ingress from dust or water
  • Can be wired directly from motor terminal block

Encoder Option Available

Encoder

  • Encoder option is available for more reliability. (Except for 1.10 in. frame size and PL Geared type)
  • Save time ordering parts, assembling and inspecting.
  • 4 encoder types: 200 or 400 pulses/rev (P/R), 2 or 3 channels.

Microstep Function

The microstepping driver electronically divides the basic step angle of the motor (1.8°/step) by up to 128 steps without the use of a reduction mechanism or other mechanical element. 16 different resolutions levels are available. The available range of resolution settings is 200 (1.8°/step) to 25600 (0.0140625°/step). The step angle can be easily set using the built-in switches on the driver. This function enables low-vibration and low-noise operation.

Microstep

Third Harmonic Waveform Correction Function

This function corrects motor drive current waveforms. It provides improved angle accuracy and reduced vibration.Third Harmonic Waveform

Smooth Drive Function

The Smooth Drive Function automatically controls the motor's microstep drive operation at the same travel and speed as in the full-step mode, without the operator having to change the speed settings of the driver's pulse input. It enables low-vibration operation available with the microstepping drive to be achieved with the flick of a switch.

Smooth Drive

Vibration Suppression Function

This function improves vibrations in the medium speed range of stepping motors. It enables reduced risk of missteps due to vibrations.Vibration Suppression

RoHS Compliant

RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Directive:
Directive on restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (2002/95/EC).
The RoHS Directive prohibits the use of six chemical substances in electrical and electronic products sold in the EU member states. The six controlled substances are: lead, hexavalent chromium, cadmium, mercury and two specific brominated flame-retardants (PBB and PBDE).
