The P760 series disc magnet motor from Portescap combines “Disc Magnet” technology and an optimized number of pole pairs to deliver 0.7-Nm torque and acceleration up to 5000 rpm. Disc Magnet ...

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 ...

Stepper motors are impressive little engines that may not be getting the credit they deserve, as they are a relatively important part of our electronic lives. Printers and CNC machines are ...

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 ...

Today, your average desktop 3D printer is a mess of belts, leadscrews, and pulleys. For his Hackaday Prize entry, [DeepSOIC] is eliminating them entirely. How’s he doing this? With a linear stepper ...

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.
