Positioning accuracy

High torsional rigidity and constant torsional backlash over the entire gearbox service life ensure consistently high performance

Compactness

High torque density thanks to high performance and short design

Low maintenance

Highest quality standards for a long service life and extended maintenance intervals

Technical data

Compact through-shaft motion

20 mm hybrid stepper motor with a 3 mm through bore

The SP20HS 20 mm hybrid hollow shaft stepper motor combines a compact square frame, holding torque up to 0.02 N·m and optional EK1 encoder configurations for space-limited rotary assemblies.

3 mm through bore

The Ø3 mm hollow shaft keeps the motor axis open for compact routing through the rotary centerline.

Two torque levels

Two verified motor lengths provide holding torque choices of 0.014 N·m and 0.02 N·m.

Optional EK1 feedback

EK1 encoder options support selectable resolutions with single-ended or differential output configurations.

Application fields

Compact rotary motion with a clear center axis

The SP20HS is intended for compact assemblies that need controlled rotary positioning and through-axis routing.

01

Optical positioning

Adjustment mechanisms with a light path or cable routed through the rotation axis.

02

Medical instruments

Compact rotary modules that need organized cable or media routing through the motor center.

03

Precision instruments

Space-limited positioning mechanisms with optional encoder feedback.

04

Compact robotics

Small joints and end-effectors that benefit from an open central routing channel.

System integration

Verified interfaces for mechanical and electrical design

Select the motor length, winding and encoder configuration according to the required torque, speed and feedback interface.
