The new drive technology developed by Sonceboz is based on a standard Nema 17 or 23 hybrid stepper motor. It integrates an intelligent electronic driver featuring load sensing and close loop control, and adapted interfaces into a compact package.
It delivers a torque up to 1 Nm and a resolution of up to 51200 microsteps/revolution. The intelligence of the embedded electronics improves overall performance by permanently adapting the phase current to meet the needs of the task. This alone makes a 50% reduction in size possible.
Thanks to the integration of intelligent electronics and the efficient magnetic structure of the stepper motor, this brushless mechatronic system is reliable, rugged and guaranteed with no step loss. This avoids having to integrate a costly external encoder.
Other advantages of this motor include reduced electrical consumption and low temperature elevation in the motor, resulting in above average energy efficiency and low maintenance. It is a low noise design, which means that the motor runs silently. The wide range of communication interfaces to be determined with the client offers a great flexibility: CAN, PWM, clock & direction, RS485, I2C…
Sonceboz’s integration of all of these elements results in a variety of advantages such as an optimised motor driver combination, a reduced size and an excellent electromagnetic compatibility for a reliable and precise drive. This mechatronic system is thus particularly well suited to a direct drive pump with less than 150W output such as peristaltic, volumetric and metering pumps.
