‘Stepper Motor Controller’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Abssac torsion springs have linear spring rates from Abssac, which we summarised at the time by saying "Abssac supplies unwind and wind-up torsion springs with linear spring rates. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Dawn Mini Logger enables in-vehicle diagnostics from HEM Data Corp: "HEM Data has introduced the Dawn Mini Logger, which fits within the mating OBD (J1962) connector under the dashboard for in-vehicle diagnostics. ".

In November 2009, we covered the news from HT Servo - take a look at HT Servo motor has integrated microstepping driver which says: "HT Servo has released its improved Silverpak 23D Plus, a high-torque NEMA 23-step motor with an integrated microstepping driver. ".

Take a look also at the news release from WEG Electric Motors, WEG motors drive Brazilian theme-park attractions , as well as Galil controller aids border patrol surveillance from Galil Motion Control, and Bambi introduces silent oil-free compressor range from Bambi Air Compressors.
