Modular stepper motor controller

Precise control for all stepper motorised devices

The MASC (Multi-Axis Stepper motor Controller) is compatible with all UHV Design stepper motorised devices. It provides precise control through a simple software interface or 3rd party software (such as Applied Motion Q and Si programmer). What’s more, it can also be controlled via our new hand-held jog box accessory. Complete with touch screen control, this provides a convenient way to direct multiple axes. Functionality includes the ability to control the speed of actuation in real-time - or save up to 4 positions per axis.

MASC Jog Box

The updated MASC Jog Box provides a simple and intuitive method for controlling any UHV Design stepper motorised product.

Products can be actuated using the simple push-button jog function, with speed-controlled via the central touch screen. In addition to this simple operation, a total of four positions per axis can be saved. Key features and functionality include:

  • Simple push-button control of movement/direction
  • Touchscreen control of speed
  • Axis selection via touchscreen
  • Store and return to up to 4 positions per axis using a simple procedure (see below for details)
  • Homing and 'zero' functions

How to store positions

Step 1 | Jog to the position you would like to save

Step 2 | Navigate to Select Axis screen

Step 3 | Press and hold the desired axis until the 'SET SEQUENCE' screen displayed

Step 4 | SELECT the sequence number to save the position against

Step 5 | Press SET to store the position
