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.

To successfully follow a velocity profile, a motor and drive combination must generate enough torque to: accelerate the load inertia at the desired rates, and drive the load torque at the desired ...

Several different styles of stepper motors in different NEMA sizes. CNC machine centers offer many benefits over manual machining such as greater productivity, precision production, and reduced labor ...

A stepper motor driver provides up to 5 A per phase from a high bus voltage with sophisticated current control, delivering high torque over a range of speeds. The STAC5 is intended for use in such ...

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 ...

It’s increasingly common for designers to pair stepper motors with motion-control SoCs. In fact, more design engineers than ever are setting up SoCs themselves for motion applications. These chips ...
