It’s increasingly common for designers to pair stepper motors with motion-control SoCs. In fact, more design engineers than ever are setting up SoCs themselves for motion applications. These chips ...

As the shift to automation continues to gain momentum in the industrial sector, servo motors and stepper motors with electric actuators become ever more important. When selecting a motor for an ...

The amount of noise in a motor depends on the type of motor, environmental conditions, and the specific application. Permanent magnet and hybrid stepper motors are generally quieter, as they have a ...

Esd electronics is offering a complete CAN-STEPCON (CANopen) starter kit to enable PC users to gain experience with CANopen motion control in all stepper motor applications. This kit contains a ...

I'm looking for a SBC recommendation for a stepper motor application for my employer. The stepper motor will rotate a chuck and an external device will take measurements based on the chuck's position.

Stepper motors resemble servo motors in that both types are characterized by an ability to rotate a partial turn and then stop for any interval with or without holding torque. In addition, both motor ...

About once a week (it seems), I get a press release talking about some company's newest stepper motor or stepper motor driver IC. Rather than discuss just one manufacturer's product to the exclusion ...

With the new EL7062 dual-channel EtherCAT Terminal, Beckhoff enables the direct connection of two stepper motors in the medium power range of up to 3 A and for a voltage range of 8–48 V. With flexible ...

Rated for a 12- to 48-V dc input voltage, Haydon Kerk's DCM4826X stepper-motor drive module features a continuous output current rating of 2.6 A rms (3.68 A peak) per phase Rated for a 12- to 48-V dc ...

The EL7062 provides a dual-channel EtherCAT motion interface with 6 A total current in a compact I/O form factor. The EL7062 dual-channel EtherCAT Terminal represents a new performance class of ...
