Stepper motors are inexpensive and rugged because they have fewer mechanical parts. They are brushless, easy to position, and are commonly used in automation systems, although they are small low power ...

DSP controllers and sensorless algorithms provide the key for implementing inexpensive closed-loop control on stepper motors. The high performance and integration found in DSP-based controllers enable ...

One of the more critical decisions engineers can make when designing any type of motion control process is choosing the motor. Getting the right motor, both in terms of type and size, is imperative to ...
