A stepper motor (also referred to as step or stepping motor) is an electromechanical device achieving mechanical movements through conversion of electrical pulses. Stepper motors are driven by digital pulses rather than by a continuous applied voltage. Unlike conventional electric motors which rotate continuously, stepper motors rotate or step in fixed angular increments. A stepper motor is most commonly used for position control. With a stepper motor/driver/controller system design, it is assumed the stepper motor will follow digital instructions. One important aspect of stepper motors is the lack of feedback to maintain control of position, which classifies stepper motors as open-loop systems.

Who invented the stepper motor?
In 1920,English engineer Walker invented the frist stepper motor which was a switched reluctance stepper motor.
Where is the Stepper motor for a 2004 Chevy impala located?
The stepper motor is located in the instrument cluster. The stepper motor is what turns the needles in all the gauges.
where can i buy a stepper motor driver online?
You could purchase a new stepper motor driver at a Home Depot. They offer new stepper motor drivers at great prices and the new stepper motor drivers are very durable.
How stepper motor?
A stepper motor is a type of electric motor that is brushless. The "question" isn't actually a question, so I'm not sure what else you would like to know about stepper motors.
What motor is used in watches?
stepper motor
Is a stepper motor with feedback loop a servo motor?
No, stepper and servo motor are by mechanical design two different types of motors.
Is a stepper motor easier to maintain than a normal ac motor?
A stepper motor is more easier to maintain than a normal ac motor. Ac motor is a seal motor under pressure. A stepper can easliy be open and the interwheels can be fixed and cleaned.

stepper motor
What is the type of motor used in hard disk drive?
stepper motor No. it is not a stepper. It is a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor. See related link for more information on this motor.
6 wire unipolar stepper motor pin connection?
tel me the connections of 6wire stepper motor with 8051 microcontroller
Why you use the call delay in case of interfacing of 8085 and stepper motor?
You need to introduce a delay after changing a driver output line for a stepper motor because the stepper motor requires finite time to respond to the command to step. Hundreds, if not thousands, of instructions can be executed while the stepper motor completes its step.
