Stepper and servo motors have different attributes when considered for motion applications. Torque curves play an important role in selecting the proper size and type of motor for an application.

[Frank Herrmann] had an interesting idea to turn a geared DC motor into a servo motor assembly, but with a stepper motor-like interface. By stacking some small PCBs behind the motor body ...

Is it something in the water, or have there been a lot of really cool servo projects lately? Mechaduino is a board that sits on a regular stepper motor and turns it into a servo with a closed loop ...

A servo drive will run smoother than a stepper ... like back EMF and electrical time constants when they are using stepper motors and drives. This results in an incorrectly configured stepper ...

PI, a global leader in precision motion control and nanopositioning, now offers fast delivery of the L-511 linear ...

as well as electronically driven brushless motors. We will discuss shunt wound, series wound, compound wound, servo, stepper, and torque motors, with a detailed explanation of how commutation and ...
