Lin Engineering and US Digital present stepper motor and encoder feedback selection considerations for motion control applications. We’ll share a case book example highlighting a medical application that required a high torque step motor utilizing an encoder for position feedback. Details of stepper motor and feedback options will be presented along with common terms and a guide to selection and integration.
