Control multiple stepper motors using an arduino. Make relevant modifications and upload the sketch to your arduino. Here's what you may need to modify (for each motor) based on your specific ...

A python script and GUI for controlling 3 stepper motors in 3 directions (X, Y, Z) from an arduino (I was using nema 23 but it should work for others in general, maybe with some small changes). I used ...

It’s fair to say that building electronic gadgets is easier now than it ever has been in the past. With low-cost modular components, there’s often just a couple dozen lines of code and a few jumper ...

grbl is stepper motor controller firmware for three-axis cnc machines, intended to run on Arduinos with a motor driver add-on board. Engineer in Wonderland cnc-related blogs are indexed here It is the ...

Makers, developers and Arduino enthusiasts searching for silent stepper drivers with high resolution encoders which are also Arduino compatible. May be interested in the new range of uStepper S line ...

We’ve all heard linear motors, like those propelling Maglev trains, described as “unrolled” versions of regular electric motors. The analogy is apt and helps to understand how a linear motor works, ...

Rotating a solar panel towards a light source (eg the sun) with return to 'morning' position after sundown. This project makes a stepper motor control the position of a solar panel to make it turn to ...

Stepper and servo motors have different attributes when considered for motion applications. Torque curves play an important role in selecting the proper size and type of motor for an application.

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 ...
