This joystick console provides intuitive, tactile, manual positioning along with two-axis control. Advanced custom motion control applications and sequences are also possible using the extensive ActiveX® programming environment described in more detail on the Motion Control Software and APT Tutorials tabs.Īdditionally, these APT controllers support Thorlabs' 2-axis joystick console. For example, all relevant operating parameters are set automatically for Thorlabs' stage/actuator products. Coupling this with the very user friendly APT software allows the user to very quickly get up and running with reasonably complex move sequences in a short period of time.

Multiple units can be connected to a single PC via standard USB hub technology for multi-axis motion control applications. USB connectivity provides easy plug-and-play PC operation. Please note that these controllers are not suitable for use with our ZST or ZFS series of stepper motors. Cables for connecting the DRV series actuator to the controller are shipped with the actuators, however replacement cables are available: the 1 m long PAA612 and the 3 m long PAA613. Alternatively, generic two-phase, bi-polar motors of varying step sizes can also be driven see the Specs tab for compatible motor information. They have been designed to drive the higher power, stepper-motor-equipped nanopositioning actuators and stages offered by Thorlabs. Many new features are provided, including a choice between trapezoidal and S-shaped velocity profiles, a higher theoretical microstep resolution (409,600 for a 200 full step motor), and speeds more than twice that achieved by their predecessors.ĭesigned for use with our DRV series of actuators ( DRV208, DRV225, and DRV250*), these one-, two- and three-channel 50 W stepper motor controllers are capable of driving high-power, 2-phase bi-polar stepper motors, with or without encoder feedback. These APT Stepper Motor Controllers are the next generation of enhanced controllers using the familiar APT User interface.
