Hybrid Stepper Motors with Encoders: Reliable Feedback for Precision Motion
Hybrid stepper motors with encoders combine the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of traditional stepper technology with real-time feedback from an electric motor encoder. These systems provide position verification, stall detection, and improved reliability, making them a popular alternative to servo systems in many applications.
By integrating a rotary encoder directly onto the rear motor shaft, users can monitor the actual shaft position and ensure the commanded motion is achieved. This motor and encoder combination reduces the risk of missed steps and improves system accuracy under variable loads. Whether using an optical encoder or other types of motor encoders, closed-loop feedback can significantly enhance system performance.
Anaheim Automation offers stepper motors in frame sizes NEMA 08 to NEMA 32 with mounted optical rotary encoders designed for seamless integration. Each motor shaft encoder is precision-aligned to deliver accurate feedback in compact industrial designs.
