About Simple Step LLC
Complete, Inexpensive Serial Motion Controllers - Simple Step motion controllers are self contained OEM style controllers that only need a single voltage DC power supply, serial communications, and a stepping motor. The complete product line comes standard with translator and amplifier on board with user settable hardware or software current limiting for each axis. Motion controllers from single to multi-axis are available in a wide range of sizes that can control stepping motors from 0.1 amps per phase to as much as 6.25 amps per phase.
