Motors offer excellent controllability and are therefore used as the drive sources of various automated equipment. In many cases a motor is combines with various mechanical components such as a ball screw, belt and pulley, and rack and pinion to convert the motor rotation to a different type of motion needed to drive the equipment. Oriental Motor has various linear actuators consisting of a motor assembled with the necessary mechanical components to meet the various needs of automated equipment.

• αSTEP AZ Series Stepper Motor Driver Required*

The DGII Series is a line of of products that combine a high rigidity hollow rotary table with an αSTEP absolute encoder AZ series closed loop stepper motor and driver package. It retains the ease of use of a stepper motor, while also allowing for highly accurate positioning of large inertia loads.

• Integrated actuator and stepper motor makes design easier
• Vertical or Horizontal Mount Motor Types
• Easy Home Setting and Return-to-Home without need for sensors
• Large-diameter hollow output table
• AC or DC Input
• αSTEP AZ Series Stepper Motor Driver Required*

These servo motors are equipped with a battery-free absolute encoder. They are suitable for continuous speed control or positioning applications with a large amount of travel since they achieve high torque in the high speed range. The basic operations are the same as the AZ Series, making combined use of equipment easy.

• Compact and High Power
• Wide Variable Speed Range
• Standard or Planetary Geared Type
• Electromagnetic Brake Types
• AZX Series Driver Required*
