A stepper motor is a device that converts electrical impulses into angular displacement. In layman's terms, when a pulse signal is sent to the coil of a stepper motor, it causes a tiny rotation of the motor's shaft, causing the motor's position to gradually change. This kind of motor is widely used in various open-loop control systems, such as printers, robots, and machine tools.
The screw stepper motor is based on the stepper motor and adds a screw structure. A lead screw is a rod that rotates, and its movement is usually synchronized with the rotation of the motor. One end of the screw is fixed to the motor shaft, and the other end is free to rotate. When the motor rotates, the lead screw also rotates, thereby converting the motor's rotational motion into linear motion. Therefore, the screw stepper motor can not only achieve rotational motion like an ordinary stepper motor, but also can achieve linear motion. This kind of motor is often used in open-loop control systems that require precise control of linear motion, such as the positioning system of machine tools, the opening and closing system of automatic doors, etc.
Structurally, the main difference between a screw stepper motor and a stepper motor is the addition of a screw structure. Functionally, in addition to achieving rotational motion like a stepper motor, a screw stepper motor can also achieve linear motion. Therefore, screw stepper motors have a wider range of applications than stepper motors.
In general, the main difference between screw stepper motors and stepper motors is their structure and function. The screw stepper motor adds a screw structure to the structure, which can convert the rotational motion of the motor into linear motion; functionally, the screw stepper motor can not only achieve rotational motion like a stepper motor, but also linear motion. .
The above are the differences between screw stepper motors and stepper motors. They are only for technical personnel’s learning reference and are not used for other purposes.
