What does this mean does this mean this mean mean for your application? your application? application? It means the smoothest means the smoothest the smoothest smoothest possible motion from a stepper motor and motor and unsurpassed compensation for motor motor non-linearity. This can be the difference between your machine and your competition, giving giving you the edge edge in functional performance. 

competition, giving giving you the edge edge in functional performance. The GM215 is different; every single microstep is further broken up into a further 16 Sub-Microsteps.This gives a step motor the smoothness of a servo with an 8000 line encoder on it while operating off of the same ARC Damping:.
