Low Speed Stepper Motor - PS-2978

This Low Speed Stepper Motor is geared down to rotate slower than the High Speed Stepper Motor (PS-2976). The Stepper Motor plugs into one of the Power Output ports on the //control.Node using the included cable. The Stepper Motor can be set to rotate through a given angle or at a given speed with a resolution of 480 steps/revolution (0.75 degrees). The feedback loop that makes it go at a constant speed is contained within the //control.Node, so there is no delay while waiting for the computer to respond. The Stepper Motor monitors how far and how fast the motor moves using the //control.Node and PASCO Capstone or SPARKvue software.

The Stepper Motor can be mounted using the two 6-32 inserts included on its exterior. The conventional, 24-tooth brass spline and custom case match the form factor and attachment hole pattern of a Servo Motor, making it easy to substitute a Servo Motor for a Stepper Motor in your project designs. The Stepper Motor also includes a hub with threaded holes that can be fitted onto the spline to securely mount accessories such as the PASCObot wheels, pulleys, or gears.
