These are a special kind of motor with multiple coils and magnets inside. Electricity that runs through the coils cause the coils to create a magnetic field that either attracts or repels the magnets and the result is motion. By controlling the amount of electricity flowing to the coils, you can get the motor to rotate and stop in certain places
Stepper motors don't need feedback sensors to tell where they are like regular motors. Rather, they make use of a method known as open loop control, where the controller just sends instructions assuming the motor will follow. This is why stepper motors are easy to control and convenient to use for a wide range of applications both low and high speed, and constant and variable drive.
Why You Should Use NEMA17 Stepper motors in your projects There are plenty of reasons to go with the HANPOSE hollow shaft motor. One of the main benefits of this technology lies on its high precision and accuracy, making it to be suitable to set up challenging applications where fine adjustments are necessary, as 3D printing, laser engraving among others. The stepper motor is also durable and has low maintenance cost, making it an affordable option for various applications
Another advantage of NEMA17 stepper motors is flexibility, they are compatible with various controllers and drivers. You'll have total control over speed, acceleration, and direction from the controller itself, giving you the power to customize the performance of the motor to fit your application. It’s this versatility that endears stepper motors to hobbyists and professionals alike.
Classification of NEMA17 Stepper Motor: Widely used in 3D printer, Monitor Equipment, Medical Machinery, Textile Machinery, Packaging Machinery, Stage Lighting, ect. They are widely used in 3D printers as the print head and build platform but are also found in many other applications. CNC machines: These use stepper motors to guide the cutting tool over the workpiece with great accuracy.
Other than 3D printing and CNC machines, these HANPOSE hollow shaft electric motor are also used in robotics, camera sliders, and the like. They can move in great, tiny steps, and hold position without feedback- exactly what you need for applications that need refined control. Whether you’re creating a moving dancing robot or a machine that can print designs on vibrating surfaces, NEMA17 Stepper Motor is the best choice for your project!
To mount a NEMA17 stepper motor, Ideally, you would have a mounting bracket / coupler that would attach the HANPOSE vertical hollow shaft motors to your project. Be certain to wire the motor to the controller in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions - wiring mistakes, including improper electrical connections, can damage the motor, and may cause it to malfunction. Now that you have the motor securely attached and wired properly you can now program the controller to run the motor how you want it.
