The CVK Series – which replaces the company’s CMK and CRK round shaft open frame packages –
features 2 motor types with 3 basic step angles. Choose from a 1.8°, 0.72°, or a 0.36° step angle, each with specific performance advantages. While the driver is matched to the motor type with maximum current setting flexibility, the driver size, mounting, and wiring are common, allowing easy testing and standardization.
The 1.8° motor type offers the highest torque in the low speed range. The 0.72° motor type is designed to maximize the mid- to upper-speed range, and the 0.36° provides superior positional accuracy compared to 1.8° and 0.9° stepper motors.
With the fully digital, standard full-time microstepping driver, low vibration is achieved throughout the entire speed ranges for all motors; especially low-to-mid ranges which are typical noise and vibration problem areas for stepper motors.
The new CVK Series is available in five frame sizes: 20 mm (0.79 in) to 56.4 / 60 mm (2.36 in). For customers requiring a driver only, the CVD driver is also available with its wide range of adjustable current settings.
The CVK Series’ key features include: 50% more torque in the lower speed range for 1.8° motors; 85% more torque in the mid- and upper-speed range for 0.72° / 0.36° motors; Superior Positional Accuracy with the 0.36° motors; and low vibration resulting from the fully digital microstepping driver.
