Agile Systems has developed SILENTstep™, a breakthrough hybrid technology drive for stepper-motors. Without the need for encoder feedback, SILENTstep™ is able to eliminate stalling, reduce audible noise, and increase motor speed. This patent-pending control technology boosts stepper-motor operation into the range of servomotor performance, while maintaining the inherent simplicity of a conventional stepper motor drive system.
