It’s little secret that stepper motors are everywhere in FDM 3D printers, but there’s no real reason why you cannot take another type of DC motor like a brushless DC (BLDC) motor and use that instead.

Hot glue guns are pretty simple beasts: there’s an on/off switch, a heating element, and a source of current, be it battery or wired. You turn it on, and the heater starts warming up; eventually you ...

Abstract: The traditional DTC method directly controls the torque and flux linkage without model calculation, which is beneficial to restraining torque ripples. However, the LRSRM not only provides ...

Abstract: Owing to their unique advantage of high torque capability at low-speed operation, vernier permanent magnet (VPM) motors are gaining increasing attention for direct-drive robotic actuation ...
