Robust Liberty MDrive products, formally known as Lexium, integrate 1.8° 2-phase stepper motors with onboard drive electronics, a controller with up to 8 I/O. Feedback options include open loop, or closed loop with a 1000 line (4000 counts/rev) incremental or multi-turn absolute encoder. Both encoder options feature hMT closed loop performance. This high degree of integration can reduce machine complexity, size and cost in many stepper and servo motor applications. Liberty MDrive delivers exceptional performance and smoothness with advanced current control. Ideal for machine builders who want an optimized motor with on-board electronics, Liberty MDrive products are well suited for industrial applications. Supported communication protocols include: Ethernet: EtherNet/IP, Profinet, ModbusTCP CANopen RS-422/485 Features include: Open loop, or closed loop with either an incremental or multi-turn absolute encoder Built-in protection circuitry IP65 rating with M12 connectors Input power range from +12 up to +70 VDC Auxiliary logic power supply input 20 microstep resolutions to 51,200 steps/rev Programmable motor run and hold currents Extended product warranty Motor sizes include NEMA 17, 23 & 34, all available in 3 stack lengths. Premium high torque motors are also an option. Products are offered in two connector versions: Pluggable Style – includes mating connectors for direct wiring M12 Circular Connector Style – IP65-rated against water and dust ingress Liberty MDrive Datasheet
