[Tobias Kuhn] had watched a YouTube video about a robot arm which used servo motors, and wanted to try making one himself. But he found it hard to get slow or smooth movements out of the servos. Even ...

Oriental Motor is pleased to expand the PKP Series stepper motor product line-up with the introduction of the PKP Series 2-phase Flat Type and PKP Series 5-phase TS Geared. The new 2-phase Flat Type ...

If you’ve been reading Hack a Day for long enough, you know about our infatuation with stepper motors. These precious little devices put the oomph into our CNC routers, 3D printers, robots, and other ...

Robots have evolved beyond repetitive tasks to incorporate AI, machine learning, and sensor fusion technologies that enable ...

Even veteran engineers often suffer from a lot of misconceptions about stepper motors and how to drive them. This article will focus on clearing up just a few of these misunderstandings so that ...

It is an engineering truism that there is no such thing as a perfect solution—just the best solution for the problem at hand. That holds particularly true for servo motors and stepper motors. Both are ...

Dublin, Jan. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Stepper Motors Market: Analysis By Type, By Motion Control, By Application, By Region Size and Trends and Forecast up to 2029" report has been added to ...

Stepper motors are often used for positioning since they are cost-effective, easy to drive, and can be used in open-loop systems—meaning that they don’t require position feedback like servo motors.

Part 2 in a series of articles on motor control design focuses on how to reduce noise, one of the biggest challenges, in stepper motors. The amount of noise in a motor depends on the type of motor, ...

Three series of MAE brand hybrid stepper motors in various standard NEMA frame sizes are engineered to deliver accurate open loop control for a wide range of high-performance positioning applications.
