Searching the multitude of available programmable motion controllers for one that is ideal for micro stepper motors with phase currents of sometimes less than 100 mA was once a real challenge. The new ...

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 ...

The MCST 3601 programmable motion controller is ideal for micro-stepper motors with phase currents that are sometimes less than 100 mA. The controller can precisely regulate phase currents from 10 mA ...

Precision movement and positioning systems used in industries such as automated manufacturing using the advanced single-chip digital motion controllers announced by STMicroelectronics. The two cSPIN ...

Hackers always have their eye out for a good deal, so when [Gadget Reboot] saw a good price on square stickers he had to pull the trigger. There was just one problem: his logo is a circle. He could ...

Agile Systems has received a patent for technology designed to improve stepper-motor performance. It allows simple low-cost two-phase stepper motors to operate as sophisticated servo motors without ...
