The SM series of stepper motors brings efficiency of motion to Aerotech’s line of rotary motor products. With ample torque at high velocities, the SM series is a perfect stand-in for DC brushed or brushless rotary motors in nearly any medium-accuracy motion application. With multiple offerings in frame sizes from NEMA 17 to NEMA 34, the SM series provides additional options to meet our customers’ needs.
Design and Integration Flexibility
The SM series motors have been designed with optional direct encoder feedback, a holding brake, or even a viscous damper to improve the dynamic response of the rotor. These standard options allow the SM series to adapt to many common motion applications and extend their capabilities for use in a wider array of processes than a general stepper motor.
