Product Description:

The N31HCLG-LNK-NS-01 is a stepper motor built by Pacific Scientific and belongs to the POWERPAC N Stepper Motors series. Designed for open-loop motion control, it translates pulse trains from a microstepping drive into quantized shaft rotation. This makes it a compact actuator for pick-and-place heads, labelers, and other positioning functions in automated equipment. Because it operates without encoder feedback, the motor is typically used in systems that control position and speed through commanded step pulses.

Mechanical architecture centers on the NEMA 34 frame, which uses standard pilot diameter and bolt circle dimensions within a 3.38 in. square frame for straightforward interchange with legacy motors. Inside, a laminated rotor assembled in a single stack generates a holding torque of 4.6 Nm, which supports static load resistance during positioning. Motion granularity is set at 200 full steps per revolution, so each command advances the shaft by 1.8°. This step angle supports predictable indexing in simple positioning routines. A straight-key, single-ended shaft transmits torque with a positive mechanical interface, and a shaft seal helps protect the internal bearings from coolant splash and dust. Heavy-duty NEMA face mounting supports secure installation, and the standard 4-lead winding connects directly to compatible stepper drives.

Overall length is 94 mm, which helps the motor fit shallow enclosures and close-coupled gearheads. Electrical insulation is rated at 100 Megohms and can withstand surge potentials up to 340 Vdc, which supports use with modern drive power sections while limiting leakage. The insulation system also helps separate the winding from the motor frame during normal operation. Power enters through a System MS connector, providing a compact connection point for motor wiring. The motor is commonly used in packaging, semiconductor, and test-handling machinery where incremental motion is required.
