Stepper Motors

Stepper motors are electromechanical devices that convert electrical pulses into precise mechanical movements, allowing for accurate control of position and speed. At Proax, you'll find a variety of stepper motors from Oriental Motor, including 2-phase unipolar and bipolar, as well as 5-phase models. Additionally, Proax provides controllers, network gateways, and stepper motor drivers to ensure optimal performance and integration of your stepper motor systems.

Stepper Motor FAQs

A stepper motor is a type of electric motor that divides a full rotation into a number of equal steps. It moves one step at a time, allowing for precise control of its rotation. Here are some key features:

Precise Positioning: Stepper motors can move and hold at a specific position, making them ideal for applications requiring precise control. No Feedback System: Unlike servo motors, stepper motors typically do not require a feedback system, simplifying their control and reducing cost. Open-Loop Control: They operate in an open-loop control system, meaning they do not rely on external feedback for positioning.

Types of stepper motors are:

  • Permanent Magnet (PM)
  • Variable Reluctance (VR)
  • Hybrid
  • Linear
  • Planetary Gear
  • Bipolar
  • Unipolar

Unipolar stepper motors have a simpler wiring configuration and are easier to control, while bipolar stepper motors offer better performance and higher torque due to their more complex wiring and driving method.
