3.5 N·m Integrated Stepper Motor with 17bit Absolute Encoder (iRSS60-36-35-17BC)

Compact Frame, Integrated Drive, Absolute Feedback

The iRSS60-36-35-17BC packages a 3.5 N·m stepper, drive electronics and a 17bit absolute encoder into a 60 mm frame. Integration removes the external driver and shortens the connection path between drive and motor, simplifying the axis assembly and panel wiring.

Application scenarios

In a 60 mm frame this unit is ideal where many small axes share one machine. Factory automation uses it on pick-and-place wrists, small rotary tables and index fingers that reposition thousands of times per shift. Packaging machinery runs it on tube sealer cams and small carton folders. Robotics relies on it for compact gripper and rotation joints within a robot arm envelope, and CNC machine tools use it on a small auxiliary axis or tool changer. Because the drive is sealed in an IP67 body, it works next to washdown or dusty stations where a separate driver would need protective packaging.

Closed-Loop Control at 50 μs Sampling

The drive samples absolute position every 50 μs and applies real-time correction, so the axis handles load changes without losing position. The absolute encoder also means position is known immediately after power-up, eliminating re-homing steps.

Sealed and Stable in Operation

IP67 protection allows direct mounting in washdown or dusty environments. Low heat generation and low vibration keep the axis thermally and mechanically stable during continuous runs, and fast acceleration supports short cycle times.

Specification Summary

• Holding torque: 3.5 N·m
• Rated current: 5.0 A
• Feedback: 17bit absolute encoder
• Protection: IP67

Engineering Guidance

Verify the 5.0 A demand against your supply before wiring. The 100 mm length and 60 mm flange define the mechanical envelope; confirm no adjacent plate interferes at the back. The absolute encoder means you can power up and start producing without a homing cycle, so remove home switches from the design. Because the drive is sealed IP67, position it in the process area, but protect its connector from direct high-pressure spray aiming at the entry points.
