Original Press Release:
MDrive® Motor+Driver Delivers Higher Torque, Smaller Footprint and Lower Cost
New NEMA 23 quad stack motor delivers torque comparable to a 34 motor in 1/3 less space
MARLBOROUGH, CT - February 25, 2009 - The MDrive® product line, with its proven leading integrated motor+driver technology, now offers a quad stack NEMA size 23 brushless 1.8° stepping motor that delivers speed-torque comparable to a single stack NEMA 34, but with a footprint 1/3 smaller (29 vs.46 in3 / 187 vs.297cm3) providing an ideal motion control solution for applications demanding high performance but with very limited space for motor, driver, controller and encoder. In addition, the quad stack 23 motor solution costs 20% less than the size 34.
The MDrive23Plus with quad stack motor is capable of full (256 x 200) microstepping with a +12 to +60 VDC integrated driver. Three (3) versions are available: Microstepping with step and direction input, Motion Control with intelligent programmable controller, and Speed Control with velocity controller.

MDrive products achieve unsurpassed smoothness and performance by applying innovative techniques to control current flow through the motor so resonance is significantly dampened over the entire speed range and audible noise is reduced. Oversized input capacitors minimize power line surges, reducing problems that can occur with long cable runs and multiple drive systems. And an extended operating range of -40° to +85°C provides long life, trouble free service in demanding environments.
The MDrive23Plus is available with a number of options to meet specific application requirements, including: encoders, planetary gearboxes, QuickStart Kits and interface cables. For more details, visit imshome.com/mdrive23plus.html
According to Max Wietharn, IMS VP of Sales and Marketing, "The MDrive23 with quad stack motor can deliver holding torque up to 283 oz-in / 200 N-cm while reducing size, cost and complexity in a wide range of motion control applications without compromising functionality, and is an ideal compact solution where machine space is limited such as in medical, biomedical, clinical chemistry and lab automation. Starting at just $295.00 each/100 piece pricing, this solution is ideal for volume OEM applications." Learn more at www.imshome.com/mdriveplus_overview.html
