NEMA 23 Dampers from Lin Engineering

November 8, 2012 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

Are you in need of an effective yet simple way to reduce resonance and vibration in your system? Rear mounting dampers from Lin Engineering were designed to be a low cost and hassle free method to make this happen. These dampers are durable, long lasting, and can easily be mounted onto standard NEMA 23 step motors.

As motors step, inertia makes the rotor oscillate about its new position before settling into position. This natural back and forth movement might sometimes contribute to the erratic movement of motors. Adding a Lin damper to the step motor’s shaft translates into smaller oscillations and thus, smoother motion. This reduced step response time can ultimately result in much improved motor performance.

Visit the Lin Engineering website for a step response comparison between a motor with damper and one without; using a damper can result in up to 4 times less resonance! You can also request an evaluation sample at no cost!
