Motion Control, in electronic terms, means to accurately control the movement of an object based on either speed, distance, load, inertia or a combination of all these factors.There are numerous types of motion control systems, including; Stepper Motor, Linear Step Motor, DC Brush, Brushless Servo, Brushless Servo and more. This brochure will concentrate on the Stepping Motor technology.

Known in Germany as Schrittmotoren, a Stepping motor is a marvel in simplicity. It has no brushes, or contacts. Basically it's a synchronous motor with the magnetic field electronically switched to rotate the armature magnet around.

A Stepping Motor System consists of three basic elements, often combined with some type of user interface (Host Computer, PLC or Dumb Terminal)
