The TSM23S-3RG integrated StepSERVO™ is a drive+motor unit, fusing a NEMA 23 step motor and a servo

drive into a single device. Power to the drive, located at the rear of the motor, must be supplied by an external DC

supply. See Related and Recommended Products below for compatible 24 and 48 volt DC power supplies .

StepSERVO technology combines the high torque capabilities of a step motor with the closed loop dynamic control

of a servo system. The result is a highly customizable all-in-one motion control solution that operates quietly and

efficiently, requiring only the minimum amount of current to maintain commanded position and velocity. Boost

torque of 25-50% higher than the rated holding torque that is available from this integrated StepSERVO motor

increases the limits of acceleration, leading to faster cycle times. With software selectable servo loops that have

been pre-tuned for various inertial loads, the TSM StepSERVO can be applied in systems where a traditional

stepper would not be capable of achieving the high accuracy required.

The TSM23S-3RG integrated StepSERVO can be operated in several different control modes, including Streaming

Command mode, Pulse & Direction mode, Velocity mode, and Torque mode. All TSM23 units are setup,

configured and tuned using Applied Motion’s Step-Servo Quick Tuner software.

Each TSM23 integrated StepSERVO comes with 8 digital inputs, 4 digital output, and 1 analog input. The digital

inputs accept signals of 5-24 VDC and can be used for connecting pulse & direction signals, end-of-travel limit

switches, jog switches, quadrature encoder signals, PLC outputs, sensors, or many other signal types. The digital

outputs can be connected to PLC inputs, counters, lights, relays, or other devices. The analog input accepts 0-5

VDC signals and can be used for velocity and position control.

The TSM23S-3RG comes with an RS-485 port for programming and serial communications to allow for the use of

Applied Motion’s Streaming Command Language (SCL). An integral 5000-line (20,000 count/rev) incremental

encoder is housed inside the same enclosure as the drive electronics and used for closed-loop servo control to

attain highly accurate position and velocity control. Encoder counts can be accessed over the network using SCL

registers.
