Description
Stepping motors find applications wherever repeated stop-start or incremental-controlled motions are encountered. Their basic design and construction makes them very suitable for digital (microprocessor) control. Consequently, they are to be found in computer hardware (disk drives, printers, for example), clocks, numerically controlled machine tools and domestic appliances. The authors take a practical approach to the subject, using many informative diagrams to explain the motor's working principles, construction details, electronic controls, applications and methods of manufacture. The book should be useful for practising electrical and electronic engineers in industry (particularly computer hardware, machine tools, and so on), as well as advanced students specializing or taking option in electrical machines.
