The Portescap 42S048 can stack stepper motors offer a 7.5° step angle and up to 7.2 oz-in. of holding torque. Available with unipolar or bipolar construction and sintered bronze-sleeve bearings, the ...

The primary feature of stepper motors is listed right within their name: their ability to ‘step’ forwards and backwards, something which they (ideally) can do perfectly in sync with the input provided ...

Stepper motors are often used for positioning since they are cost-effective, easy to drive, and can be used in open-loop systems—meaning that they don’t require position feedback like servo motors.

Hybrid stepper motors combine the operating principles of variable reluctance with permanent-magnet stepper motors. The rotor shaft holds one or more pairs of stacked laminations containing many teeth ...

When it’s time to specify a high-performance motor that offers both precise positioning and cost efficiency, stepper motors offer many advantages over DC motors thanks to their brushless technology.

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) defines a servo device as “an adjustable-speed AC power drive system that includes an AC motor integrated by feedback, a converter, and control, ...

Applied Motion Products offers compact step motors in NEMA sizes 8, 11, and 14 for applications with limited space including medical devices, 3D printers, analytical and medical instruments, textile ...
