4. BASIC INTRODUCTION OF STEPPER MOTOR
• A stepper motor, also known as step motor or stepping motor,
is a brushless DC electric motor that divides a full rotation into a
number of equal steps.
• The motor's position can then be commanded to move and hold
at one of these steps without any position
sensor for feedback (an open-loop controller), as long as the
motor is carefully sized to the application in respect to torque and
speed.
5. FUNDAMENTALS OF OPERATION
• Brushed DC motors rotate continuously when DC voltage is applied
to their terminals. The stepper motor is known by its property of
converting a train of input pulses (typically square wave pulses) into
a precisely defined increment in the shaft position. Each pulse
moves the shaft through a fixed angle.
• Stepper motors effectively have multiple "toothed" electromagnets
arranged around a central gear-shaped piece of iron.
6. • The electromagnets are energized by an external driver circuit or
a micro controller. To make the motor shaft turn, first, one
electromagnet is given power, which magnetically attracts the gear's
teeth.
• When the gear's teeth are aligned to the first electromagnet, they are
slightly offset from the next electromagnet. This means that when the
next electromagnet is turned on and the first is turned off, the gear
rotates slightly to align with the next one. From there the process is
repeated. Each of those rotations is called a "step", with an integer
number of steps making a full rotation. In that way, the motor can be
turned by a precise angle.
8. TYPES OF STEPPER MOTORS:
There are three main types of stepper motors:
1. Permanent magnet stepper
2. Variable reluctance stepper
3. Hybrid synchronous stepper
9. Applications
1. Computer controlled stepper motors are a type of motion-
control positioning system. They are typically digitally controlled as
part of an open loop system for use in holding or positioning
applications.
2. In the field of lasers and optics they are frequently used in
precision positioning equipment such as linear actuators, linear
stages, rotation stages, goniometers, and mirror mounts. Other
uses are in packaging machinery, and positioning of valve
pilot stages for fluid control systems.
10. 3. Commercially, stepper motors are used in floppy disk drives, flatbed
scanners, computer printers, plotters, slot machines, image
scanners, compact disc drives, intelligent lighting, camera lenses, CNC
machines and, more recently, in 3D printers.
Advantages:
1.Low cost for control achieved
2.High torque at startup and low speeds
3.Ruggedness
4.Simplicity of construction
5.Can operate in an open loop control system
6.Low maintenance

12. Introduction Of Servo Motor
The servo motor is most commonly used for high technology devices in
the industrial application like automation technology. It is a self contained
electrical device, that rotate parts of a machine with high efficiency and
great precision. The output shaft of this motor can be moved to a
particular angle. Servo motors are mainly used in home electronics, toys,
cars, airplanes, etc
13. Types of Servo Motor:
1. DC Servo Motor
2. AC Servo Motor
3. Positional Rotation Servo Motor
4. Continuous Rotation Servo Motor
5. Linear Servo Motor
14. Servo Motor Working Principle:
A unique design for servo motors are proposed in controlling the
robotics and for control applications. They are basically used to adjust
the speed control at high torques and accurate positioning. Parts
required are motor position sensor and a highly developed controller.
