In addition to our motor catalog, Sinotech offers motor consulting services in the areas of motor selection, design and applications to help you determine the best BLDC motor, stepper motor or...
View ArticleChoosing Hazardous Duty Synchronous Motors & Stepper Motors
In the gear motor world, the two main types of motors are the AC synchronous motor and the DC stepper motor. Synchronous motors have a shaft that rotates at the same frequency as the supply current, so...
View ArticleStepper Motors & Preventing Step Losses
The biggest issue that surrounds the use of step motors and tarnishes its unlimited potential is step losses. However, such losses can be avoided and corrected. The operation of a step motor is best...
View ArticleMicro Stepper Motors for Control Systems
A stepper motor is a type of brushless DC motor that has an equal number of steps dividing a full rotation. Micro stepper motors take a standard step, say 7 degrees, and divide it up to provide smaller...
View ArticleStepper Motors vs. BLDC Motors: Differences & Uses
When you need a motor for an application, you may not know if a brushless DC motor or stepper motor is best. In principle, both types are permanent-magnet synchronous motors. The difference is in their...
View ArticlePermanent-Magnet Stepper Motors: Disc Motor Benefits
Disc motors are permanent-magnet stepper motors that act in a similar fashion as hybrid motors. Unlike hybrid and traditional permanent magnet motors, disk motors have thin rotors. Stepper motor...
View ArticleUnderstanding Stepper Motor Driver Circuits
Diver circuits directly influence the performance of stepper motors. Stepper motor manufacturers generally use driver circuits to optimize a motor’s driver system, meet winding parameters and make the...
