Siemens 6ES5 267-8MA11 Stepper Motor Control Module

Siemens 6ES5 267-8MA11 IP267 Stepper Motor Control Module is a dedicated interface for the SIMATIC S5 IP 267 system, designed to drive a stepper motor through the S5-100U family. This module accepts a 24 V input supply and provides an analog output in the 0.4–4.5 V range capable of sourcing up to 20 mA, allowing a compatible stepper motor drive or amplifier to translate PLC commands into precise motor steps. The 6ES5 267-8MA11 designation identifies the IP267 Stepper Motor Controller variant used with Siemens' older S5 controllers, offering a compact, plug-in control path between the PLC and the motor actuator. Typical installations involve positioning, indexing, or other incremental motion tasks within automated equipment where a Siemens S5 controller oversees motion profiles, feeds, or tool positioning. As part of the S5 ecosystem, this module relies on the IP 267 interface module environment and is compatible with other IP 267-compatible hardware in S5-100U configurations. This model is specifically matched to the 6ES5 267-8MA11 specification within the IP 267 family, delivering a purpose-built stepper control path for legacy Siemens automation setups.
