The primary feature of stepper motors is listed right within their name: their ability to ‘step’ forwards and backwards, something which they (ideally) can do perfectly in sync with the input provided ...

Stepper motors divide a full rotation into hundreds of discrete steps, which makes them ideal to precisely control movements, be it in cars, robots, 3D printers or CNC machines. Most stepper motors ...

Stepping motors fill a unique niche in the motor controlworld. These motors are commonly used in measurementand control applications. Sample applicationsinclude ink jet printers, CNC machines and ...

Stepping motors offer many advantages. Although feedback is not usually required, stepping motors are compatible with feedback signals, either analog or digital ...

The first installment of this two-part series focused on debugging brushed-DC motor systems. Now the second installment will share some tips for stepper motor systems and provide general bench testing ...

It is an engineering truism that there is no such thing as a perfect solution—just the best solution for the problem at hand. That holds particularly true for servo motors and stepper motors. Both are ...

When it’s time to specify a high-performance motor that offers both precise positioning and cost efficiency, stepper motors offer many advantages over DC motors thanks to their brushless technology.

International certification minimizes the cost and time involved with gaining regulatory compliance for an OEM’s complete system. Approvals include ATEX and IECEx certifications for Class 1, Zone 1 ...
