Product Description:

The AS1030-0000 is a two-phase stepper motor produced by Beckhoff within the AS Stepper Motors series. The unit translates digital pulse trains into controlled rotary motion, allowing open-loop positioning for light to medium mechanical loads. It is typically coupled to linear actuators, labeling heads, or compact conveyors where moderate torque and high repeatability are required without feedback sensors. Its NEMA-style frame is sized for straightforward integration into compact machine frames and other space-limited motion assemblies.

The motor delivers a holding torque of 0.6 Nm, giving static force to resist external disturbance when energized. Each command advances the shaft by a step angle of 1.8°, and with 200 full steps per revolution, the controller can map motion directly to pulse counts. Phase windings draw a rated current of 1.5 A, and at this current the device uses 19.5 W of electrical input while its winding resistance of 0.80 Ω affects the supply voltage requirement. Axial backlash is limited to 0.075 mm, supporting precise end-play control, and an axial load capacity of 15 N helps keep the shaft seated against thrust bearings. Backlash at standstill is ±0.054°, and radial backlash of 0.025 mm helps maintain low runout for encoder couplings or other connected components.

For forces perpendicular to the shaft, the motor tolerates up to 85 N at a 10 mm overhang, protecting bearings in belt or gear transmissions. A winding inductance of 3.80 mH shapes current rise time, which helps smooth microstepping behavior and supports stable low-speed motion. Dynamic response also depends on a rotor moment of inertia of 0.21 kg·cm², allowing quick acceleration in indexing tasks and short positioning moves. The overall weight of 0.68 kg keeps moving mass low, which is useful when the motor is installed on gantry carriages, compact slides, or other assemblies where excess mass can reduce responsiveness.
