Here is how to implement a stepper motor to sense position and actively correct any error that might accrue during actuation.
Frequently, when it comes to step motor selection, users will select a motor with the highest holding torque rating, assuming that it will give them optimal performance. However, it is an improper ...
[Neumi] over on Hackaday.IO wanted a simple-to-use way to drive stepper motors, which could be quickly deployed in a wide variety of applications yet to be determined. The solution is named Ethersweep ...
Stepper motors are often used for positioning since they are cost-effective, easy to drive, and can be used in open-loop systems—meaning that they don’t require position feedback like servo motors.
The LPD6G series two-phase stepping motor packs a parallel planetary gearhead that delivers 1.2 oz.-in. of torque at 1,358 pulses per second or 30 rpm. The entire package measures 0.5" in length by ...
