Calculating the Steps per Revolution for Stepper Motor
It is important to know how to calculate the steps per Revolution for your stepper motor because only then you can program it effectively. In Arduino we will be operating the stepping motor in 4-step…Continue Reading
The main constraints of choosing your power supply
The voltage of your cnc power supply should be greater than or equal to the rated voltage of your stepper motor. Otherwise, the motor will not receive its full rated current and you will not…Continue Reading
how to wire my stepper motor without the pinouts?
Solution In general, 2-phase stepper motors can have 4, 6 or 8-wire leads (not including any optional encoder lines). Some hybrid step motors have a motor case ground that can be tied to the ground…Continue Reading
0.9 vs 1.8 Degree Step Angle Stepper Motor
Over the years there have been discussions about the 1.8 degree step angle versus 0.9 degree stepper motor. Most stepper motors today have the standard step angle of 1.8 degrees, resulting in a 200 step…Continue Reading
Closed loop-capable stepper motors technology
Closed loop-capable stepper motors merge the benefits of stepper and servo motor technology. They run more quietly and have a lower resonance than stepper motors, provide position feedback and control, feature short settling times, and…Continue Reading
