Coordinate several axes from software for processing, inspection and test sequences.
System integration
Use these checks to connect SIN12-60 to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
Technical FAQ
Step/half-step resolution(°): ≈0.011/0.0055 · Resolution under 20 subdivision(°): ≈0.00055. Separate travel from resolution and both from repeatability. Repeatability is what an automated sequence actually depends on, and it is the figure most often absent from a headline specification.
Motor and its stepping angle (°): Two-phase 28 steeping,1.8 · Brand and model number of motor: Shinano,STP-28D1003-08. Pair open-loop mechanics with the specified high-voltage or inertial driver, and closed-loop variants with the controller their capacitive, strain-gauge or encoder feedback requires. Matching connectors do not guarantee electrical compatibility.
