28STH32 NEMA-11 Bipolar Gearless Stepper Motor
This NEMA-11 motor generates 600 g-cm of holding torque at 0.67 Amps. It comes with the rear shaft exposed, so you can mount an encoder or shaft coupler. See the “Compatible Products” tab for a complete list of attachments.
When connected to a 1067 – PhidgetStepper Bipolar HC, the 3320 has a maximum speed of approximately 426 RPM. See the “Compatible Products” tab for wiring details.
Connection
This motor must be controlled by a constant current or chopper drive controller. You can find a list of suitable controllers on the Compatible Productstab. There you will also find compatible attachments such as encoders, mounting hardware, and transmission hardware.
Warning
| Connecting the motor directly to a power supply will destroy the motor and void the warranty. If you want to check your motor make sure it is connected to a constant current / chopper drive controller. |

Motor Controllers
This motor must be controlled by a stepper motor controller. This diagram shows how to connect the motor wires to the controller to produce a clockwise rotation in the stepper motor when increasing position. To wire for counter-clockwise rotation when increasing position, reverse the red and blue wires.
Note: Make sure to unplug the power cord from the motor controller before switching wires around.
The following stepper controllers can be used to drive this motor:
| Product | Controller Properties | Electrical Properties | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Part Number | Motor Position Resolution | Stepper Velocity Resolution | Stepper Velocity Max | Available Current per Coil Max |
| 1067_0B | 1⁄16 Step (40-Bit Signed) | 1 1/16 steps/sec | 250000 1/16 steps/sec | 4 A |
| STC1000_0 | 1⁄16 Step (40-Bit Signed) | 1 1/16 steps/sec | 115000 1/16 steps/sec | 4 A |
Encoders
The rear shaft of this motor can be equipped with an encoder for applications where you need to keep track of the exact position, velocity, or acceleration of the motor. The mounting holes on the back of this motor are compatible with the following encoders:

Pulleys and Sprockets
If you’re using this motor to drive a rotary system that requires a lot of torque, you may be interested in pulleys and sprockets. By using a two pulleys or sprockets of different sizes, you can increase the gear ratio of the motor. Pulleys and sprockets can also be used to transmit the motor’s rotation over a long distance. For more guidance on building a transmission system, visit our Rotary Motion Primer. Here is a list of our 5mm bore pulleys and sprockets:
