All stepper-motor systems consist of a controller, drive, and motor. Most systems are connected to a PLC for supervisory control. The controller accurately regulates the step position, the speed ...

How to Control a Stepper Motor Using a Computer. Stepper motors produce accurate, computer-controlled motion for applications such as robotic arms and paper-feed mechanisms for printers.

The ongoing advancements in stepper motor technology also highlight important trends for automation engineers, particularly in energy efficiency, customization and integration. Modern stepper motors ...

Due to this fine level of control, stepper motors are required in any applications where there needs to be an exact movement such as 3D printers and CNC machines (or robots).

IDEC Corporation introduces a line of motion control stepper products in conjunction with Advanced Micro Controls Inc. (AMCI), an established developer of motion control systems. This AMCI by IDEC ...

Leveraging the Trinamic TMC2208 stepper motor driver gives Ethersweep silky smooth and quiet motor control, which could be very important for some applications.

Even first-time users can get a stepper motor moving as commanded in 30 min or less. Commands can be issued from any serial terminal program or from the EZ Stepper Windows program, but the EZHR17EN ...
