1055595/IMB is a single-axis, high-performance positioning system manufactured by Elco SpA. This compact stepper motor drive system is designed to provide motion control applications precise positioning capabilities. The 1055595/IMB system consists of components such as a stepper motor and a matching drive system with integrated brake, a controller, and an encoder. The system is capable of performing up to 1600 steps-per-second, with a maximum resolution of 1 micron. The 1055595/IMB also features an integrated programmable logic controller (PLC), with inputs and outputs, and 12 digital/analog inputs and 4 digital/analog outputs. This system is suitable for applications requiring full speed control, high speed switching, unique custom logic functions, high vibration resistance and high speed positional feedback. This system is widely used in the automotive and industrial sectors for applications such as cut-to-length and pick & place.
