About Stepper Motors

Stepper motors use a magnetic field to move a rotor. Stepping can be done in full step, half step or other fractional step increments. Voltage is applied to poles around the rotor. The voltage changes the polarity of each pole, and the resulting magnetic interaction between the poles and the rotor causes the rotor to move. Stepper motors provide precise positioning and ease of use, especially in low acceleration or static load applications.

Products & Services Related to Stepper Motors

AC Motors

AC motors include single, multiphase, universal, induction, synchronous, and gear motors. They also include servomotors.

AC Servomotors

AC servomotors are responsive, high-acceleration motors typically constructed as permanent magnet synchronous motors.

DC Motors

DC motors are most commonly used in variable speed and torque applications. They include brushless and gear motors, as well as servomotors.

DC Servomotors

DC servomotors are generally small and powerful for their size, and easy to control. Common types of DC servomotors include brushless or gear motors.

Gearmotors

Gearmotors consist of an AC or DC motor with an integral gearbox or gear head that steps delivered speed up or down.
