Because the Linistepper provides active current regulation, you will get better performance from it than from other linear drivers, and because it is linear, you will get smother motion and better high speed operation. It may be that a chopper type driver would give you better low speed torque. My best recommendation is to purchase one of each and try it out.' at: '' maulik.kapuria@colorado.edu asks:
Hello sir,|Delete 'P-' before: '' but after: ' HI,
I have a question about the PCB. I am plannin to drive a sanyo denki unipolr motor(6 wires) that runs on 6.5V 1A per phase. I have to use this stepper motor drive board for space application. Would this work for the above rated voltage and current. Should I have to make any changes? I read that the motor supply voltage to the driver must be higher than the actual motor operating voltage. I cannot increase the voltage since that increases my power(which i have limited on my payload). can I supply 6.5V to the linstepper and connect a motor that runs on 6.5V? I have a requirement of microstepping till 16th of a step. Thanks...
How slow can you go? How about 1 revolution per _day_ for a solar clock (goes round once per 24 hours). The instantaneous accuracy is not important, so the microsteps can be of slightly different sizes, only that the total number is exactly one revolution. I tried my Linistepper on no load and it works fine at this slow rate, but I have yet to try it with a load.|Delete 'P-' before: '' but after: '
