Brushless servo motors are all the hype these days. But stepper motors still provide a number of advantages while being more cost efficient and robust. Together with precision linear and rotary ...

Microstepping is a major advancement in step motor technology introduced many years ago that allows motors to make finer steps in movement. By manipulating the current vector, microstepping creates ...

SAN DIEGO, June 28 /PRNewswire/ — The new high-performance, high-reliability stepper motor drivers from ROHM Semiconductor offer selectable excitation modes—full-step to sixteenth-step with 1.0A or ...

The device is designed to use parallel ports in order to connect a bipolar step motor to a personal computer. The circuit is allowed to manage motors up to 3A for phase and is optically isolated from ...

The graph shows that at 16 microsteps/full step, the incremental torque for one microstep is less than 10% of the full-step holding torque. The lure of microstepping a two-phase stepper motor is ...

The new P80630-SDN stepper drive offers a more compact footprint, greater smoothness, precision and torque density relative to Kollmorgen’s previous models. Designed for fixed load, low speed point-to ...
