Search on WeChatAutomation Knowledge Base Hello everyone! Today I want to talk about a knowledge point that I learned through practical experience—how PLCs control stepper motors. I remember the first time I encountered a stepper motor, I spent a long time looking at the manual, my mind filled with terms like “pulse count” and “frequency”. … Read more
Stepper motors are commonly used for positioning control, and their rotation angle (which can also be considered as distance) is controlled by the number of pulses output from the PLC. The frequency of the pulses controls the speed of the stepper motor. For applications where control precision is not critical, this method is simple, economical, … Read more
What is a Stepper Motor? A stepper motor is a type of motor that converts electrical pulse signals into corresponding angular displacement or linear displacement. For a stepper motor, each input pulse signal causes the rotor to rotate by a certain angle or take a step forward. The output angular displacement or linear displacement is … Read more
