Reduced Power Consumption with a High-torque Stepper Motor
Effectively using a high-torque motor can reduce power consumption. After revising the magnetic design and structure design of the PKP Series of stepper motors, it produces much more torque than conventional products of the same size. In addition, torque can be increased in the high-speed range by using high current motors. There are also drivers that can maximize the performance of the PKP Series.

The Effects of Using the PKP Series
Comparison of Speed–Torque Characteristics and CO2 Emissions
The high torque of the PKP Series can be utilized to achieve a running current with the same torque as a conventional product to reduce CO2 emissions.

Comparison of Motor Temperature Rise
Temperature rise in the motor can be suppressed by lowering the running current in the PKP Series. This increases the life of the motor.
