Stepping Motors: A Guide to Theory and Practice / Edition 4

by Paul P. Acarnley, Institution of Electrical Engineers Staff

Overview

This book provides an introductory text which will enable the reader to both appreciate the essential characteristics of stepping motor systems and understand how these characteristics are being exploited in the continuing development of new motors, drives and controllers. A basic theoretical approach relating to the more significant aspects of performance is presented, although it is assumed throughout that the reader has no previous experience of electrical machines and is primarily interested in the applications of stepping motors.
