Components
The STM is a completely mounted, permanently excited synchro-
nous motor in a cylindrical housing with a center bore.
The STM has an integrated measuring system. A temperature
sensor is integrated in the motor winding.
The STM belongs to the category of torque motors. The
typical characteristics of a torque motor are its high torque, low
speeds and a strong rigidity.
The STM is used typically for rotating and pivoting of large
masses. The center bore can be used as a media feed-through.
The STM must be operated using a controller. The following op-
erating modes can be set:
•
Torque-controlled
•
Speed-controlled
•
Position-controlled
