Modular Stepper Motor Controller
Precise control for Stepper Motorised Devices
The Multi-Axis Stepper Motor Controller (MASC) is designed to provide precise, flexible control for all UHV Design stepper motorised devices. Compatible with both 4-lead and 8-lead stepper motors, the MASC offers a simple software interface, along with 3rd party software options such as Applied Motion Q and Si Programmer. With the addition of our newly updated hand-held jog box accessory, featuring a touchscreen for intuitive speed control, you can achieve seamless actuation across multiple axes. This controller is ideal for applications that demand precision and system-level integration, including vacuum applications, scientific research, and light industrial use.
