nema size 23 stepping motors

Stepper Motor - SM23 Series (Size 23)


FEATURES:
  • Superior speed and torque range
  • Choose single or double shaft
  • Available with back mounted encoder
  • Industry leading warranty and support
  • 100% compatible with entire line of AMCI stepper motor drives and controllers

DESCRIPTION

These size 23 stepper motors have been selected to match perfectly with the AMCI stepper drives.

Their high torque design reduces the length of the stepper motor while providing more torque than most standard size 23 motors.

These size 23 stepper motors are available in double shaft, single shaft, or with an optional 1000 line encoder mounted on the back of the motor. The motors all have eight leads to allow for either series or parallel connections.

Generate your SM23 Series (Size 23) Stepper Motor part number by using this helpful ordering guide. Starting from left to right, use the following diagram and table to choose the desired options.

 
Part Number Character

SM23 Series (Size 23) Motor Selections

 
Nominal Holding Torque: 130 = 130 oz-in
240 = 240 oz-in
Shaft Type: Blank* = single
D = double
Encoder: Blank* = none
E = 5Vdc differential 1000 line encoder installed
Please note: a SM23 size 23 stepper motor with the factory installed encoder requires a double shaft motor. (e.g. SM23-130DE = valid number | SM23-130E = not valid)
* Blank is used to indicate an option represented by no character in that location of the part number.
