The primary feature of stepper motors is listed right within their name: their ability to ‘step’ forwards and backwards, ...

If a stepping motor is used to change the position of a mechanical load by several steps the system designer needs to know how much torque the motor can produce whilst accelerating, decelerating or ...

causes the motor to jump from one step position to the next, resulting in overshoot, torque ripple, and vibrations. Also, we want to increase the resolution of a stepper motor for more accurate ...

In module 3 you will learn principles of DC motors, traditional brushed motors, as well as electronically driven brushless motors. We will discuss shunt wound, series wound, compound wound, servo, ...
