16 N·m Stepper Motor With Brake - NEMA 42 Vertical Axis Safety

16 N·m Stepper Motor With Brake for Vertical Axis Safety

The 110J12160EC-17BC-SC is a 16 N·m Stepper Motor With Brake in a NEMA 42 frame, 160 mm long, rated at 6.0 A per phase on a 19 mm shaft. It is the mid-length brake variant of the 110 mm frame family, specified where axis space is moderate and load holding is required.

Spring-Loaded Fail-Safe Design

The brake is spring-loaded in the standard fail-safe configuration: removing power allows the brake to clamp the rotor and hold the load. During normal operation the brake releases so the motor turns with the efficiency of a conventional closed loop stepper.

Feedback and Control

An integrated 17-bit encoder provides rotor position to the drive. The closed loop corrects position error in real time, which extends the reliable speed range and prevents the step loss typical of open-loop steppers when load spikes occur.

Where It Is Used

Vertical axes in factory automation, robotic lift mechanisms, and printing machines are common installations. The brake also simplifies startup and shutdown sequences in food processing equipment where safety interlocks are mandatory. Lyenwsin offers this 16 N·m Stepper Motor With Brake with matching drives and brake control documentation.

Axis Commissioning

Program the controller to energize the brake release before the first motion command, then add a short delay before acceleration. On Z-axis applications, verify the home position is established with the brake released to avoid false limit signals. The moderate 6.0 A draw suits machines that already run NEMA 42 closed loop drives. Confirm the encoder resolution matches the controller’s electronic gearing so commanded distances convert to the intended travel.
