This Design Idea further develops a previous one integrating a stepper-motor driver in a CPLD (Reference 1). However, this idea integrates not only the driver, but also a simple one-axis stepper-motor ...

Measuring 40 x 40 mm, the dual-axis EZHR17EN stepper-motor controller/driver provides up to 2-A drive current for one axis and up to 1 A for the second axis with an optional second stepper or ...

When you think about highly-precise actuators, stepper motors probably aren’t the first device that comes to mind. However, as [Diffraction Limited]’s sub-micron capable micro-manipulator shows, they ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Millions of small electrical devices with built-in motor-driven mechanisms, used daily around the world, rely on ...

A new drive option for the DMC-30000 Pocket Motion Controller Series is the DMC-30016 from Galil Motion Control Inc. • Combines a single-axis motion controller with a 1.4-A per phase stepper drive • ...

Stepper motors are now being used more frequently in industrial environments. Increased performance and reduced size make them increasingly attractive, and their application is no longer limited to ...

Engineers rely on motion-control devices to improve efficiencies and production rates on automated factory floors, or at least maintain them. One family of such devices, stepper motors, is widely used ...

The X20SM1436-1 module from B&R can be used to operate stepper motors with operating voltages of 18-60 VDC at rated currents up to 2.5 A. In addition, an integrated current reduction function ...

Designed for medical devices, scientific and optical instruments, embedded automation applications, and other small-footprint devices needing dual-axis motion control, this system is designed to work ...

Some of the first popular printers that made it into homes and schools were Apple Imagewriters and other deafeningly slow dot matrix printers. Now there’s a laser printer in every office that’s ...
