EP7041-0002 | Stepper motor module 50 V DC, 5 A, with incremental encoder, 2 digital inputs, 1 digital output

The EP7041 EtherCAT Box is intended for the direct connection of different Stepper Motors. The PWM output stages for two motor coils with compact design are located in the module together with two inputs for limit switches and cover a wide voltage and current range. The EP7041 can be adjusted to the motor and the application by changing just a few parameters. 64-fold micro-stepping ensures particularly quiet and precise motor operation. Connection of an incremental encoder enables a simple servo axis to be realised. Two digital inputs and a digital 0.5 A output enable connection of end switches and a motor brake.
