DM860 Driver

Technical reference for the DM860 stepper drive, covering features and full specifications including voltage, current, microstep, and environmental ratings.

DM860 Driver

The DM860 stepper drive adopts advanced features like electrical damping, anti-resonance, start-up smoothing, multi-stepping... With the input voltage of 20 - 80 VDC and output current of 0.50 - 5.60 A, it is capable of driving a wide range of 2-phase stepper motors with high precision at extra smoothness, quietness, and very low motor heating.

Its multi-Stepping feature allows a low resolution step input to produce a much higher microstep output for smoother & quiet motor movement, and much lower motor heating. This feature will significantly improve the performance of your stepper control systems.
