Single Stack | 8kg |
This chart provides an overview of the force required to backdrive stepper linear actuators, a critical parameter for determining their suitability in various applications. Backdriving occurs when an external force causes the lead screw to rotate, moving the actuator without motor input. Understanding the backdriving force is essential for ensuring the stability and precision of motion control systems.
The data is categorized by NEMA motor size, motor stack type (single or double), and lead screw lead, offering a comprehensive comparison for different configurations. Whether you're selecting components for a new design or evaluating the performance of an existing system, this chart serves as a valuable reference for making informed decisions.
