The 1063 – PhidgetStepper Bipolar 1-Motor allows you to control the position, velocity, and acceleration of one bipolar stepper motor.
The 1063 can be used in applications that require very precise positioning; This is also the product you want to use to control larger industrial steppers or for applications that need a lot of torque.
If you need motors, we do carry a good selection of Bipolar stepper motors.
- 3024 – Power Supply 12VDC 2.0A (North American style plug)
- 3023 – Power Supply 12VDC 2.0A (European style plug)
- 3025 – Power Supply 12VDC 2.0A (UK style plug)
- 3022 – Power Supply 12VDC 2.0A (Australian style plug)
- A 3018 - Mini-USB Cable 180cm
- A Hardware mounting kit (4 nuts and bolts, 4 plastic spacers)
We do not carry enclosures for the 1063_1, because motor controllers are prone to overheating when kept in enclosed spaces for extended periods of time with no airflow.
