Know the four most common microstepping myths. Myth 1: A high microstep count will result in evenly spaced steps at that count. Microstepping is good for smooth motion. However, having a 256 microstep ...

The DCM4826X stepper-motor drive module is a bipolar two-phase chopper drive rated for a 12 to 48-Vdc input voltage and a continuous output current rating of 2.6 Arms (3.68-A peak) per phase The ...

We know you've got questions, and if you're brave enough to ask the world for answers, then here's the outlet to do so. This week's Ask Engadget inquiry is from Dylan, who has the rarest of all beasts ...

Rated for a 12- to 48-V dc input voltage, Haydon Kerk's DCM4826X stepper-motor drive module features a continuous output current rating of 2.6 A rms (3.68 A peak) per phase Rated for a 12- to 48-V dc ...

The Easy-Step 3000 stepper-motor drive and control system drives unipolar motors rated at up to 35 V and 3 A per phase in full two-phase, full one-phase, and half-step modes. The 63.6 x 26.4-mm device ...

Stepper motor drive When a two-pole permanent magnet is used in the motor rotor, one full-step corresponds to a mechanical angle of 90 0. Each full step can be further divided into a number of ...

The CRK-M family is a ROHS-compliant high resolution series of 5-phase step motors and drivers. The family consists of 3 step motor and driver models that offer a basic step angle of 0.36º. The ...

Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. A new controller IC, the L6470 for stepper motors, integrates the power stage along with a digital control core on a ...

Stepper motors divide a full rotation into hundreds of discrete steps, which makes them ideal to precisely control movements, be it in cars, robots, 3D printers or CNC machines. Most stepper motors ...

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 ...

The X20SM1436-1 module from B&R can be used to operate stepper motors with operating voltages of 18-60 VDC at rated currents up to 2.5 A. In addition, an integrated current reduction function ...
