Stepper Dampers Boast Long Life, Easy Mounting

The company's latest line of NEMA 17 stepper-motor dampers are described as durable, long lasting, and as being easily mounted onto standard NEMA 17 step motors. Adding one to a motor shaft translates into smaller oscillations and smoother motion. The dampers are suitable for both wet and dry operation. When employed in dry environments, they exhibit an inertia of 0.064 oz.-in. (11.71 gm-cm). Mounting is achieved via a 5-mm setscrew.
