BLE2 Series
Enhanced features: up to 16 programmable speeds, multiple control options (analog voltage, external potentiometer, digital inputs), torque limiting, and load-holding for vertical axes (with optional brake). Includes digital display on the driver.

Shared Features:

• Stable speed control under load changes (± 0.2 %)

• Compact, durable, low-maintenance motors

• Easy system integration via digital I/Os

• Available with IP66 or IP67 rating and optional H1 grease (spur gear, 30–120 W)

Ideal for precise, compact drive systems in packaging, conveying, food-grade applications and more.

AZ Series - Servo-controlled stepper motor with battery-less absolute encoder

The AZ Series combines hybrid stepper motor technology with a built-in, battery-free mechanical multi-turn absolute encoder (ABZO sensor).

Key Features

• Battery-free mechanical multi-turn absolute encoder (ABZO) integrated as standard

• Absolute positioning range: ±900 (standard) or ±1,800 (extended) revolutions

• Open-loop operation for quiet running; closed-loop engagement for overload conditions

• Frame sizes: 20 mm, 28 mm, 42 mm, 60 mm, and 85 mm

• Gearhead options: spur gearheads, right-angle-gearheads, planetary gearheads & Harmonic Drive®

• Wide variety of actuators available: linear actuators, rotary actuators, grippers, and more

• Control flexibility: pulse-direction input, digital I/O, or fieldbus communication (EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, Modbus RTU)

• Integrated monitoring and diagnostic functions for reliable system operation

• Optional electromagnetic brake for holding loads in vertical applications

Common Features

Reliable positioning, compact design, and flexible integration into a wide range of automation solutions
