We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rot… ...

Titanio series stepper drives from Ever Motion Solutions include three new drives available with two open-loop (no encoder ...

[Frank Herrmann] had an interesting idea to turn a geared DC motor into a servo motor assembly, but with a stepper motor-like interface. By stacking some small PCBs behind the motor body, it was ...

A diagram of the stepper motor circuit is included, as well (Fig. 7). Any compatible stepper driver and stepper motor can be used. You don’t need to source the exact same components seen here.

The new SC Series from Nanotec Electronic is an out-of-the-box combination of a stepper motor with an optical encoder.

Stepper motors also have performance limitations. For example, the motor needs to break friction to begin turning and move the load, at which point the rotor is not fully controlled.

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 ...

The new board drives three 2-phase bipolar stepper motors up to 2.8A. Utilizing Trinamic’s highest performance stepper motor driver IC for external MOSFETs TMC5160 and the dedicated closed-loop motion ...

Advanced internal current sensing provides better current regulation in bipolar stepper motor drivers, which improves the quality of motion.

Encoder specialist POSITAL has expanded its line of kit-style encoders for feedback for servo and stepper motors with new models that utilize the same mounting form factor as incremental kit encoders ...

JVL QuickStep closed-loop integrated stepper motors provide higher torque, faster acceleration, torque control, stall free operation and quieter movements than traditional step motor systems. They do ...
