The stepper motor control system in linear drive application

The paper presents a linear drive application driven by a stepper motor. A description of the stepper motor work and control is given. The results of experiment as relationship between rotor angular velocity and input signal frequency are presented and discussed. Two cases: full-step and micro-step positioning arc examined. The measurements were made in wide frequency range (385,5 Hz-1029,3 Hz), and the results are illustrated in graphical way. This research shows advantages and disadvantages of the laboratory system as a linear drive of the stepping motor.
