Novanta MDrive Integrated Motors - Stepper

High Performance

Close-loop hMTechnology blends stepper and servo motor benefits; reduce system wiring up to 40% with integrated motors, while simplifying the EMC concept and improving machine reliability.

Integrated Design

MDrive products integrate stepper motor, drive, controller, internal encoder and closed loop performance, all in one compact package to simplify machine building

Unique Properties

Units are programmable and networkable, support multiple industrial network including RS232/RS485, CANOpen, Profinet, Modbus/TCP and EtherNet/IP. Products are built to order, with customisation available

Cost & Energy Saving

Liberty MDrive (LMD) can reduce machine complexity, size, and cost in many stepper and servo applications. A battery-free multi-turn absolute encoder can detect shaft movement and store position information for up to 30 days without power.

Up to IP65 Protection

For applications operating in harsher environments, feel confident with independently certified IP65 products protecting your system from water and dust. Optional industrial M12 connectors provide a robust interface

Certifications and sustainability

Novanta's integrated stepper motors meet the most recent quality, environmental and performance standards, such as CE, RoHS, UL, REACH. A conditional 4-year warranty is standard for rotary motor products.

Novanta MDrive integrated stepper motors are compact and efficient motion control solutions designed for use in industrial applications. These motors combine a high-performance stepper motor, drive electronics, and feedback components into a single compact unit, providing a flexible and cost-effective solution for machine building needs. With features such as programmable motion control, CANOpen, Ethernet, real-time monitoring, and customisable feedback options, Novanta MDrive integrated stepper motors provide precise and reliable motion control for a wide range of applications.
