Modular stepper motor controller
Precise control for all stepper motorised devices
The MASC (Multi-Axis Stepper motor Controller) is compatible with all UHV Design stepper motorised devices. It provides precise control through a simple software interface or 3rd party software (such as Applied Motion Q and Si programmer). What’s more, it can also be controlled via our new hand-held jog box accessory. Complete with touch screen control, this provides a convenient way to direct multiple axes. Functionality includes the ability to control the speed of actuation in real-time - or save up to 4 positions per axis.
Key Specifications
- Microstepping
- Industry standard Applied Motion Products Driver
- Monitoring and control over RS-485
- Incremental encoder compatible as standard
- Configurable touch screen Jog Box accessory
MASC Stepper Motor Controller
The Stepper Motor Driver is designed for light industrial and scientific use and is ideal when precision and system-level integration are required. Key features and functionality include:
- Compatibility with 4 and 8 lead (parallel) stepper motors
- Microstepping function and monitoring and control over RS-485
- Software configurable with the dedicated application
- Incremental encoder compatible as standard (Note: contact us for details of closed-loop control)
- Industry-standard Applied Motion Products Driver
- Programmable with Applied Motion Products Q programmer plus 3rd Party Software options
- SMART jog box option, software configurable with the dedicated application
- Jog Box emulator - PC Software for fast and simple operation
MASC Jog Box
The updated MASC Jog Box provides a simple and intuitive method for controlling any UHV Design stepper motorised product.
Products can be actuated using the simple push-button jog function, with speed-controlled via the central touch screen. In addition to this simple operation, a total of four positions per axis can be saved. Key features and functionality include:
- Simple push-button control of movement/direction
- Touchscreen control of speed
- Axis selection via touchscreen
- Store and return to up to 4 positions per axis using a simple procedure (see below for details)
- Homing and 'zero' functions
How to store positions
Step 1 | Jog to the position you would like to save
Step 2 | Navigate to Select Axis screen
Step 3 | Press and hold the desired axis until the 'SET SEQUENCE' screen displayed
Step 4 | SELECT the sequence number to save the position against
Step 5 | Press SET to store the position
