Product Description:

The CTP32NLS23KAA00 is a hybrid stepper motor manufactured by Kollmorgen as part of the CT Stepper Motors series. By advancing the rotor in fixed electrical step angles, the motor provides open-loop positioning for indexing tables, compact gantries, and feeder mechanisms where repeatable motion without feedback devices is acceptable. Its role in automation is to convert the pulse sequence from a dedicated drive into accurate, incremental mechanical movement that can be synchronized with other machine events.

With a frame envelope of Size 34 / 8.5 cm, the motor matches the common NEMA 34 mounting footprint. Fastening is handled through NEMA through holes, so the housing seats flush against a machine plate without adapters. The 2-stack construction concentrates the magnetic circuit, letting the rotor deliver 9.5 N·m of bipolar holding torque for decisive start-stop moves. A continuous 100 lbs axial load can be supported in either direction, enabling direct coupling to ball screws or thrust collars. When driven in unipolar mode, the windings draw 2.3 A, a current that mid-range stepper amplifiers can supply while maintaining thermal headroom. The motor uses pre-terminated leads for wiring, and Kollmorgen places this model in its High Torque Performance Series.

Six color-coded conductors—black, orange, red, yellow, white-black-orange, and white-red-yellow—simplify wiring when the motor is landed on terminal blocks rather than connectors. Electrical insulation withstands 340 VDC, protecting the coil system from back-EMF spikes during rapid deceleration. The shaft end tolerates a center-loaded 65 lbs radial load, and the straight keyway profile transmits torque to pulleys or gears without slip. No rear accessories are fitted, leaving space for user-installed encoders or brakes. The motor is part of the Cool Torque Performance Series and uses efficient lamination geometry to support high torque output.
