Tired of stepper drives that stall or give you a hard time to set up? The IANG1E 1-Axis Stepper Drive Controller Modbus TCP 24-48V DC is built to end that frustration. It is a compact controller that drives one or more stepper motors and talks to your PLC or PC over standard Ethernet. If you need precise motion without wiring a complex network, this unit gives you the reliability you need.
IANG1E 1-Axis Stepper Drive Controller Modbus TCP 24-48V DC
Many automation projects suffer from slow communication and limited expandability. When a controller cannot keep up, the whole line slows down and errors increase. This matters because downtime costs money and hurts product quality. The IANG1E solves the issue with a fast Modbus TCP/IP link, easy DIN-rail mounting, and the ability to add up to six axes. You get a clear, scalable solution that fits into any control cabinet.
Benefits
- Fast Ethernet communication reduces lag and improves real-time control.
- Programmable current from 0.1 A to 4.0 A lets you match any motor size.
- Hybrid open-loop and closed-loop modes give you servo-like performance when needed.
- Compact DIN-rail design saves space in crowded panels.
- Built-in safety inputs and fault output protect equipment and operators.
Usages
The IANG1E works well in conveyor systems where precise positioning is required. It fits robotic pick-and-place cells that need quick start-stop cycles. It can also drive indexing tables in packaging machines or control valve actuators in process plants. Because it supports Modbus TCP, you can link it to SCADA, PLCs, or PC-based motion software without extra converters.
Key Features
- Modbus TCP/IP protocol for easy network integration.
- Supply voltage 24-48 V DC, surge tolerant to 60 V.
- PWM frequency 20 kHz for smooth motor operation.
- Step resolution programmable from 200 to 32,767 steps per revolution.

- Four to eight-lead motor connections (Series, Parallel, Center-tapped).
- Differential auxiliary inputs 3.5-27 V DC, opto-isolated up to 1500 V.
- 5 V DC encoder input with external resistor option for 12-24 V range.
- Home, E-Stop, limit, index, jog, registration and position capture functions.
- Open-collector fault output, 30 V max, 20 mA limit.
- Operating temperature -20 C to 50 C, weight about 0.95 kg.
- DIN-rail mounting (EN 05 022) for quick installation.
