JVL Industri Elektronik A/S has released a new generation of the NEMA23 integrated stepper motors.

The new motor family is based on the newest technology and the advancement of the previous designs, incorporating customers feedback. It offers the widest pallet of options in the market and thus will fit into all possible customer applications.

Key features include a high motor torque +40%, industrial Ethernets – 6 protocols, closed-loop operation, torque control, absolute multiturn encoder, safe Torque Off (STO) input, double shaft, electromechanical brake, wide supply range 7-72VDC, M12 industrial connectors and configurable connectors.

It also has a speed of 0-3000 in 0.01RPM steps, a high resolution of 409600 cnt/rev and has a IP65 protection rating.

The integrated motors in the NEMA23 size flange have an RS485, an optional CANopen or an industrial Ethernet interface as well as an easy programmable motion controller. All the necessary electronics in a stepper system is integrated into the motor. JVL has used the latest technology to achieve the incredibly high step resolution of 409,600 step / revolution, resulting in unsurpassed smoothness and silent running.

The customer can choose between top or rear-end mounted M12 connectors. The MIS23 motors come in three different sizes and two different motor types; three with standard high torque stepper motors and two versions with ultra high torque stepper motors with 40% higher motor torque.

Standard torque:

• MIS231 with 1,1 Nm, length 102 mm
• MIS232 with 1,6 Nm, length 122 mm
• MIS234 with 2,5 Nm, length 170 mm

Ultra high torque with magnet in rotor:

• MIS231 with 1,6 Nm, length 102 mm
• MIS232 with 2,5 Nm, length 122 mm

The motors can be operated as stand-alone units or controlled from a PLC or PC. The 8 I/Os can be individually configured as digital input, digital output or analog input. As standard, it is possible to communicate with holistic systems via for example Modbus RTU or CANopen. The MAC motor standard protocol that is also supported makes it possible to connect up to 254 other JVL integrated motors. The MIS23 series allows connectivity to all industrial Ethernet interfaces such as Profinet, EtherCAT, Powerlink, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP and SERCOS III.

The integrated stepper motors in the MIS series are also available with wireless Bluetooth, ZigBee or WLAN.
