The USB's many advantages have led designers to come up with a wide range of applications for the bus. For example, the figure shows a USB-based controller for four stepper motors built using ...

Stepper motors produce accurate, computer-controlled motion for applications such as robotic arms and paper-feed mechanisms for printers. They require current pulses delivered through a special ...

Promising to simplify the design of multi-axis drives using servo and stepper motors, the Copley Motion Objects (CMOs) library works with LabVIEW graphical programming software to eliminate the need ...

SoftMotion Development Module 2.0 is the latest version of software for LabView that enables users to create customized motion controllers using software and deploy them for any of the vendor’s ...

Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...

The amount of noise in a motor depends on the type of motor, environmental conditions, and the specific application. Permanent magnet and hybrid stepper motors are generally quieter, as they have a ...

In this paper, the authors focus on designing and controlling an articulated 3-DOF robotic arm using LabVIEW and NImyRIO. Now-a-days, robots have been used in common places of manufacturing and making ...

If you are building a project that needs to control stepper motors wirelessly you might be interested in a new piece of hardware created by the team at Good Robotics which takes the form of the aptly ...

Engineers rely on motion-control devices to improve efficiencies and production rates on automated factory floors, or at least maintain them. One family of such devices, stepper motors, is widely used ...
