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… ...

When you think about highly-precise actuators, stepper motors probably aren’t the first device that comes to mind. However, ...

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

How optical rotary encoders can provide real-time motion feedback on motion applications using stepper motor-driven linear actuators.

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 ...

Position-controlled stepper motor axes are recognized for outstanding position stability. Traditional classical (DC) servo systems exhibit typical controller oscillation up to a few encoder counts.

As the shift to automation continues to gain momentum in the industrial sector, servo motors and stepper motors with electric actuators become ever more important. When selecting a motor for an ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

The new AEDR-850x encoders feature built-in interpolation for high-resolution measurement that is ideal for a wide range of applications, including closed-loop stepper motors, miniature motors ...
