AutomationDirect has added new SureStep motors, now available in NEMA 42 frame sizes.  Six new motor sizes are available with single or dual shafts. These twelve models extend the torque range of the SureStep line up to 4532 oz-in.

The mating extension cables are available in 6, 10, and 20-foot lengths, and an encoder adapter plate option allows the attachment of CUI Devices AMT132/AMT332 encoders and US Digital E6 encoders.

The online Stepper System selector, available on AutomationDirect’s website, has been updated to include these new NEMA 42 models and will guide you through the selection of a stepper motor and all the compatible system components.

Single-shaft motors start at $19.50, and dual-shaft motors start at $23.50.
