Stepper Motor

A stepper motor, also known as step motor or stepping motor, is a brushless DC electric motor that divides a full rotation into a number of equal steps. The motor's position can then be commanded to move and hold at one of these steps without any position sensor for feedback (an open-loop controller), as long as the motor is carefully sized to the application in respect to torque and speed.

Arduino CNC Thermocol Cutter

“In this project, I’d like to share how to build a 2-axis thermocol/ polystyrene cutting CNC machine with its frame and supports made of electrical wire casing/duct and 3D printed parts. Basically it is a thermocol cutting tool …

Designing a High-Performance Stepper Motor Driver with TMC22

“In this project, we’ll explore how to create a high-performance stepper motor driver circuit using the TMC2209. Circuit Connection Connect the TMC2209 as follows: 1. Power Supply Connections: - Connect the VBB/VCC pin to the positive terminal of the …

Dual Spiral Marble Clock

“This is another one of my clock projects this time inspired by marble clocks. However, not wanting to replicate an existing design I created my own. Where most marble clocks contain a large number of marbles, this design is minimalist …

Fix Belt CNC Plotter

“Today, I’d like to share how to build a fixed belt CNC plotterthat has a very different construction from the others, in that both axes XY are made from fixed timing belts and their stepper motors are hidden inside …

Non-Split Flap Digital Clock

“I developed a new clock mechanism to address the issues present in existing mechanical clocks. Famous split-flap displays exhibit undesirable parting lines in the text, and their display surfaces cannot be tilted as they rely on gravity. Numechron-type clocks feature …

Make a simple 3D Hollow clock (Arduino Nano and 5V Stepper)

“Hi, in this project I will show you how I made this great-looking 3D-printed Hollow clock. Hi, in this project I will show you how I made this great-looking 3D-printed Hollow clock. I saw this project on Thingiverse a few …

Single Axis Joystick Controller With Arduino

“I created a DIY controller box using single-axis joystick modules and Arduino Nano to control an RGB LED, servo motor, and stepper motor! In this project, I demonstrate three different use cases for single-axis joysticks with an Arduino Nano microcontroller …

Arduino+Stepper microscope Z-stage + keypress emulation

“Automation of a microscope Z-stage by Arduino + stepper 28BYJ48, controlled by serial dialogue, with emulated keypress after each movement. To understand the meaning of this project, you should be confident with the concepts of focus stacking in macrophotography or photomicrography …

Digital Geneva Clock

“A simple digital clock with sequential Geneva drives. - Easy time adjustment using sliding mechanism to release the engagement of Geneva drives - Easy to make with only 9 printed parts - Driven by a single motor - Easy to print without support structure …

Single Arm SCARA Plotter - With “HOMING”

“About 3 years ago, I made my own a simple robot arm and published it at: https://www.instructables.com/DIY-SINGLE-ARM-SCARA-ROBOT/. Until now, many people, especially students continued to ask me questions about how to “HOMING …
