A; stepper motor can rotate to various angle if the resolution is infinite then the rotation will be infinite. however practically is set to step a certain angle per step

What are stepper motors used for?

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


Transfer function of stepper motor?

A stepper motor has a transfer function. The exact function is determined by a motor's individual characteristics. The speed at which it is capable of repeating a position is based on its geometric configuration and size.


How do you hook up 9 lead 3 phase motor?

Don't know of any three phase low voltage motors. Perhaps it's a "stepper motor". Stepper motors are typically computer controlled, with the computer pulsing different pairs of wire to cause the motor to "step".


Why use dc motor not stepper motor in robot?

DC motors use PWM (pulse width modulation), which can easily increase or decrease the power to the motor, thereby increasing or decreasing the motor speed by modulating the width of the pulse. Stepper motors have fixed frequencies, thereby having fixed motor speeds. As a result, the speed of the stepper motor cannot be controlled when the load is increased.


Is stepper motor ac or dc motor?

neither. DC locks the rotor of a stepper stationary, pulses applied to a stepper's windings in one order advances it while in the opposite order reverses it. steppers typically have 4 to 6 windings.

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.
