STEPPERONLINE New Linear Stepper Motor

Linear stepper motor is a device that generates force and motion through a straight line. Linear stepper motor uses a stepper motor as a source of rotational power. Inside the rotor, there is a threaded precision nut instead of a shaft. The shaft is replaced by a lead screw. When the rotor is rotating (as in a conventional stepper motor), linear motion is achieved directly through the nut and threaded screw. It makes sense to perform the rotation directly to the linear transformation inside the motor, because this method greatly simplifies the design of the rotation to linear applications. This makes high resolution and precision ideal for applications that require precise motion. The step size of the linear stepper motor is determined by the step angle of the motor and the pitch of the internally threaded nut and the lead screw. In order to ensure high working efficiency, there must be a certain degree of freedom between the rotor and the lead screw, which requires a certain gap between the two, which is about 0.03 to 0.08 mm axial clearance (also called backlash).
