A STUDY GUIDE TO SERVO AND STEPPER MOTOR CONTROLS

Here are the declared training objectives of the present course - to identify and further explain to the students how to make proper differentiation between the open-loop and close-loop positioning and also to explain the working principle of every technique; the students will get to know how stepper and servo motor control systems achieve the required precision and get familiarized with the general principles of operation of the motors; upon completion of the lesson, the students should be able to properly identify and explain to others how the major components of a direct and/or alternate current servo motor and of stepper motor controller function, explain the most common fault indications, properly describe the conditions in the above mentioned systems that may possibly lead to the operating problems, implement and recommend the operational procedures for prevention of the occurring or recurring of such problems.

We would definitely recommend this publication for training purposes as well as for the refreshment of the basic theoretical knowledge on the subject matters. This study guide was developed and released by Tel-A-Trains and belongs to the Solid State Motor Controls Training series.
