IDEA™ Programmable Stepper Motor Drive

Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions, Inc. www.HaydonKerk.com Phone: 800 243 2715 International: 203 756 7441

A stepper motor drive and fully

programmable control unit

that uses an intuitive

patent-pending Graphic User

Interface (GUI). The IDEA

Drive technology is available

in several different

configurations including an

external programmable drive

and controller, or integrated

with a linear actuator to form

a complete package of motor,

actuator, and programmable

drive.

DCM4826X IDEA™ Drive – Pulse, Direction, Enable

The Haydon™ DCM4826 IDEA Stepper Motor Drive is ideal

for controlling both rotary stepper motors and stepper motor

based linear actuator systems using a simple “pulse”, “direc-

tion”, and “enable” signal from a stepper motor control board.

Input voltage to the drive is 12-48 VDC. The stepper motor

drive can provide a load current of 2.6 A rms per phase. The

PDE signals are optically isolated from the rest of the drive,

providing the ability to reference a separate electrical ground.

simple to use with on-screen buttons and easy-to-understand programming guides.

Common user interface between stepper and

brushless drives allow our users to seamlessly

transition across motor technologies.

Start performing moves with a brushless motor after entering

a few motor characteristics. The graphical user interface is

designed with the end user in mind, automatically calculating

and populating motion parameters to speed up the develop-

ment process. The interface can be set to units of inches,

millimeters, and revolutions to allow users to easily integrate

the drive into linear or rotary based systems. The software

program generates motion profiles directly into the system and

also contains a “debug” utility allowing line-by-line execution of

a motion profile for easy troubleshooting.
