The circular connectors are currently available with programmable motion control RS-422/485 communications in 2 NEMA motor sizes: 23 & 34.

Lexium MDrive high torque step motors are integrated with drives from 12 up to 70 VDC, controller, I/O, and internal encoder. Their closed loop performance can replace servos in lower speed applications, without the high cost and complexity of servomotors.

The compact all-in-one design of Lexium MDrive products saves space, reduces wiring and improves machine reliability — meeting the needs of expanding markets with robust, innovative technology that benefits a wide range of motion applications.
