Bosch Rexroth introduces pre-parameterized stepper motors for single and multi-axis systems

Motors increase efficiency and reduce commissioning time with fully configured solutions for Rexroth’s compact SMS linear modules

Solutions for handling small parts must be compact, cost-effective, and quick to implement. Bosch Rexroth's space-optimized SMS screw-driven small modules, which are available from stock, now have fully configured drive and connection elements. New high-performance stepping motors with integrated drive controllers significantly shorten commissioning thanks to pre-parameterization, which is carried out without any additional tools using the onboard controller. A multi-Ethernet interface with an EtherCAT communication profile provides the necessary connectivity and with the ctrlX CORE open control platform, Bosch Rexroth also provides users with a suitable control solution as an option.


Building on the compact SMS linear modules in sizes 30 to 120, Bosch Rexroth continues to expand its wide range of products with configured motors, attachment options, and connection technology. These solutions are ideal for small parts handling in automotive, electronics, consumer goods, medical technology, or 3D printing. Users can implement both linear single-axis systems and multi-axis solutions for handling small parts flexibly, easily, quickly, and economically. The electromechanical single axes SMS are a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to pneumatic solutions.
