Hybrid Stepper Motors
Selecting a Nippon Pulse hybrid stepper motor will be made easier if you follow these guidelines:
- Outline the motions that you’re trying to achieve
- Define the total number of degrees the motor will move
- Calculate the total number of steps in that move
- Calculate the acceleration and deceleration needed to make the move in the time allowed
- Calculate the torque needed to accelerate and decelerate the payload
- Find a coil who’s torque curve provides more force at each speed in your move than is needed to move the payload
- Select the correct electronics needed to drive the motor
