Actuation System: Stepper Motor

Phase : It refers to the no of independent windings on the stator

STEPPER MOTOR

 

1.Phase.

 

It refers to the no of independent windings on the stator

 

e.g two phase motors -used in light duty application

 

three phase phase motor- used in variable reluctance

 

2. step angle

 

The angle through which the rotor rotates for one switching change for stator coils

 

3. holding torque

 

The maximum torque that can be applied to o powered motor without moving it from rest and causing spindle motion

 

4. pull in torque

 

The maximum torque against which motor will start or a given pulse rate and reach the synchronism without lose a step

 

5.pull out  torque

 

The maximum torque that can be applied to a motor running at given stepping rate , without losing synchronism

 

6.pull in rate

 

The maximum switching rate at which a loaded motor will remain in synchronism as the switching switching rate is produced

 

7.slew rate

 

The range of switching rates between pull in and pull out within which the motor runs in synchronism but cant reverse

 

characteristics of stepper motor

 

 


 

DC MOTOR .

 

The major factors in selecting an actuator for mechatronic applications are

 

Precision

 

Accuracy and resolution

 

Power required for actuation

 

Cost of the actuation device

 

The most popular actuators in mechatronic systems are direct current (DC) motors. DC motors are electromechanical devices that provide precise and continuous control of speed over a wide range of operations by varying the voltage applied to the motor.

 

The DC motor is the earliest form of electric motor. The desirable features of DC motors are their high torque, speed control ability over a wide range, speed-torque characteristics, and usefulness in various types of control applications.
