Allows Step Motors to be Used in Sensitive Semi-Conductor Applications

In some semi-conductor applications the small amount of EMI emitted by step motors disrupted precision instruments. To eliminate the EMI, the stators needed to be grounded to the housings. After extensive testing, Lin Engineering found that Loctite® 3888™ two-part electrically conductive epoxy adhesive was selected as the optimum solution. It completely eliminated the EMI with the added benefit and also structurally reinforced the motor which has allowed Lin Engineering step motors to be used in sensitive semi-conductor applications.
