The EJ7062 EtherCAT plug-in module is designed for direct connection of two stepper motors in the medium power range up to 3 A and for a voltage range from 8 to 48 V DC.
The stepper motor output stage is integrated into the EtherCAT plug-in module in a compact design together with two digital inputs for limit switches and an encoder interface for various 5 V encoders. Parameterization allows the EJ7062 to be optimally adapted to the corresponding motor and the requirements of the application. Fine micro-stepping ensures particularly quiet and precise motor operation.
In combination with a suitable stepper motor, the EJ7062 is a compact and economical drive solution.
Special features:
- integrated travel path control
- encoder input
- additional digital inputs
