It isn’t hard to imagine a scenario where you are stuck at home all day with nothing to do and certain items are in short supply. Sure, bathroom tissue gets all the press, but try buying some flour or ...

We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rotate ...

They do this with greater efficiency and less motor heating because motor phase currents are regulated up and down according to need. Performance of the closed-loop steppers are similar to servo ...

With the addition of encoder options for 0.36º and 0.72º stepping motors, the vendor’s entire range of stepping motors (including 0.9º and 1.8º stepping motors) now has the option for an encoder.

A high-accuracy 20-bit resolution quasi-absolute encoder with DSP-based signal processing is housed in a dc stepper motor assembly, as shown in Fig. 1. Able to operate in a temperature range between ...

As the shift to automation continues to gain momentum in the industrial sector, servo motors and stepper motors with electric actuators become ever more important. When selecting a motor for an ...

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.

Know the four most common microstepping myths. Myth 1: A high microstep count will result in evenly spaced steps at that count. Microstepping is good for smooth motion. However, having a 256 microstep ...

Stepper motors find use in many automotive applications,including headlight leveling; adaptiveheadlamps, in which the headlamps turn rightor left with the steering wheel; EGR ...
