AMCI Model: #SD17040C
The SD17040C surpasses competing stepper drives with a host
of features designed to simplify set-up, increase performance,
and drive value.
SIMPLIFIED SET-UP & OPERATION:
AMCI's SD17040C was designed with you, the customer, in mind.
Onboard dip switches simplify set-up & installation, eliminating
the need for proprietary software & programming cables;
plus field changes are a snap making it easy to reconfigure
output current in 0.1A increments or microstepping resolution.
Additionally, a selectable self-test feature is provided for
troubleshooting your system. And because AMCI's SD17040C is
an AC line-powered drive, you don't need a separate power
supply, eliminating the cost and complexity of another component
in your system. Plus, AMCI's SD17040C stepper drive is 100%
compatible with all AMCI stepper controllers and motors, making
it easy for you to specify a winning system.
POWER, PERFORMANCE, & SAFETY:
The SD17040C's is an AC line-powered stepper drive,
supplying motor current through a 170V bus. The drive's exceptional
power combined with anti-resonance circuitry delivers the
smoothest, most reliable performance possible in a stepper
motor system. This driver also includes an automatic feature
to lower motor current anytime the motor is left at rest for
more than 1 second.
Configurable features such as microstepping resolution, automatic
current reduction, and anti-resonance make it easy to maximize
the SD17040C's performance for your application. Plus safety
features include an interlock connection to prevent injury
if the motor connector is removed while the driver is powered.
Additionally, short circuit protection - including phase to
phase and phase to ground- and overtemperature circuitry comes
standard.
RELIABILITY BY DESIGN:
AMCI's SD17040C is a compact, but powerful AC powered 4.0
Arms microstepping motor driver designed with performance
and longevity in mind. Reliability is guaranteed. The SD17040C
is purpose built for demanding applications, starting with
board-level components rated to 105°C (221°F) letting
you take full advantage of the drive's compact size.
Unlike most industrial stepper drives with electronics rated
to 85°C (185°F), AMCI's SD17040C unit can be installed
into tight spaces without thermal issues; supplemental fans
or cooling aids are NOT required...AMCI's SD17040C runs cool
by design. Plus, you can choose optional panel or side mounting
for added flexibility during installation.
COMPACT SIZE & CUSTOMIZATION:
Using DSP (Digital Signal Processor) technology enables the
SD17040C's sleek, space saving design compared with other
drives that rely on bulky, analog-based circuitry. The DSP
technology also makes it possible for AMCI to customize the
drive's performance. Custom microstepping resolutions or preset
motion profiles can be configured without undergoing a product
redesign, enabling AMCI to offer unique solutions at competitive
prices for volume orders.
AMCI's SD17040C microstepping motor driver delivers unparalleled
value, performance, and reliability. Request a quote from

Microstepping Stepper
Motor Driver - 4.0 Arms/5.7A peak (115VAC) |
Current rating:
4.0 Arms (average current) / 5.7A peak (peak
current)
NOTE: There
are 2 ways to express the magnitude of current in microstepping
stepper motor drivers, RMS and Peak.
1 amp RMS = 1.414 amp Peak.
AMCI's SD17040C stepper motor drive is rated for 4.0
amp RMS or 5.7 amp Peak.
