Stepper motors are an ideal choice for accurately moving and positioning mechanical devices. Using techniques like microstepping the position of the motor shaft can be controlled with a great deal of ...

A Stepper Motor is a brushless, synchronous motor which completes a full rotation into a number of steps. In this Arduino stepper motor tutorial we will learn about the most commonly available stepper ...

A stepper motor is a type of brushless DC motor that divides a full rotation into a number of steps, thus allowing for precise control of the motor's position. The A4988 driver is a versatile stepper ...

Controlling the motors is done through [Guy Carpenter]’s Switec X25 library for the Arduino, allowing an Arduino Uno to control up to three stepper motor gauges simultaneously.

Stepper motor (M1) NEMA 17, 1.8° step angle: 1: Motor driver (DR1) A4988 or DRV8825 stepper driver: 1: Microcontroller (MOD1) Arduino Uno: 1: Encoder (MOD2) Rotary encoder for position feedback: 1: ...

The build relies on an Arduino Uno as the brains. It’s equipped with an L293D motor driver shield to run two DC gear motors which drive the walking assemblies.
