Sanmotion F2 (2-Phase)

SANMOTION F2 Two-Phase Stepping Motors

The SANMOTION F2 Series from Sanyo Denki is a comprehensive range of two-phase stepping motors designed to provide precise positioning, smooth motion, and dependable operation across a wide variety of industrial automation applications. Combining high torque performance with low vibration and low noise characteristics, the F2 Series offers an ideal solution for machine builders seeking accurate motion control without the complexity of encoder-based servo systems.

Operating using open-loop pulse control, SANMOTION F2 motors rotate through a fixed angle for every input pulse, providing highly accurate incremental positioning with excellent repeatability. Their inherent holding torque enables stable positioning when stationary, making them particularly suitable for indexing, positioning, and fixed-speed applications. By eliminating the need for encoder feedback in many applications, the F2 Series helps simplify system design while reducing overall system cost.

The extensive product range includes motors from ultra-compact 14 mm square models through to larger 106 mm frame sizes, with both 1.8° and high-resolution 0.9° step angle versions available. Additional options include thin-profile motors, IP65 splash and dust-proof models, vacuum-compatible versions, gearheads, encoders, and integrated brakes, allowing machine builders to configure the optimum solution for almost any application.

Advanced microstepping drivers support resolutions down to 1/16 microstep, significantly reducing vibration and noise while improving motion smoothness. Combined with high-efficiency motor designs and a broad range of torque options, the SANMOTION F2 Series delivers reliable, energy-efficient performance for demanding industrial environments.

Micromech supplies SANMOTION F2 two-phase stepping motors as part of a complete motion control and automation solution portfolio for OEMs, machine builders, and industrial automation applications throughout the UK.
