We’ve all heard linear motors, like those propelling Maglev trains, described as “unrolled” versions of regular electric motors. The analogy is apt and helps to understand how a linear motor works, ...

Over on hackaday.io and deep in the Hackaday Prize, a lot of cool people are playing around with the possibilities of putting coils in printed circuit boards. On the face of it, it makes sense: ...

The SLA7070MPRT series are unipolar two-phase stepper motor driver integrated circuits (ICs). This device uses a clock input method as a control signal input method, enabling full control of the ...

The fundamental circuit shown in Figure 1 generates timing for a two-phase stepper motor from an oscillator, as well as a direction (forward or reverse) signal. Figure... The fundamental circuit shown ...

The ADM 0620 two-phase stepper motor from MicroMo Electronics Inc., a company within the Faulhaber Group based in Clearwater, Fla., sets a new standard for compactness. The ADM 0620 two-phase stepper ...

Agile Systems has received a patent for technology designed to improve stepper-motor performance. Agile Systems has received a patent for technology designed to improve stepper-motor performance. It ...

Joining the company's ARSAPE product line is the ADM 0620 stepper motor. Its 6-mm outer diameter, 9.3-mm length, and 1.4-gm weight make it the smallest, produced in series, two-phase stepper motor in ...

Brushless servo motors are all the hype these days. But stepper motors still provide a number of advantages while being more cost efficient and robust. Together with precision linear and rotary ...
