Moreover, changing from a stepper motor to BLDC requires a significant redesign of the mechanical subsystems, in addition to developing the control software. These demands can significantly ...

Kollmorgen has announced the launch of the P80360 stepper drive, the latest addition to its P8000 series. This new drive ...

Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...

Stepper Motor Control System Stepper motor control primarily consists of a sensor, SoC, and stepper motor. The sensor output is given to a SoC, which then drives the stepper motor based on the ...

A test and demonstration of using stepper motors in RC applications, highlighting the benefits of smooth movement and precise control compared to traditional servo motors.

All stepper-motor systems consist of a controller, drive, and motor. Most systems are connected to a PLC for supervisory control. The controller accurately regulates the step position, the speed ...

When you write software to control a stepper motor, you must first know how many pulses the motor needs to turn a full rotation. In addition, you need the rotational speed expected by the device ...

More sophisticated stepper-motor controllers, microstepping drives, and general-purpose controllers are available for systems requiring higher levels of accuracy, repeatability, and programmability.

IDEC Corporation introduces a line of motion control stepper products in conjunction with Advanced Micro Controls Inc. (AMCI), an established developer of motion control systems. This AMCI by IDEC ...

Nanotec will reportedly be the first manufacturer in the world to launch a sensorless control for stepper motors in which the speed of the rotor is determined by means of a "virtual encoder ...
