1.A brief introduction to permanent magnet stepper motor
Permanent magnet stepper motor (PM stepper motor), also known as PM stepper motor, is a motor that uses the interaction between permanent magnet and electromagnetic coil to achieve stepping motion. Its core feature is that permanent magnet steel is used as the rotor material, and the stator is processed into claw-type tooth poles by stamping, usually using radial multi-pole magnetized permanent magnet steel. This design makes permanent magnet stepper motors have the advantages of low cost, simple structure and high reliability.
2.Working principle of permanent magnet stepper motor
The working principle of permanent magnet stepper motor is based on electromagnetic interaction. When the stepper motor driver receives the control pulse and direction signal, the internal logic circuit controls the winding to be energized in a certain sequence. For example, for a two-phase stepper motor, when both phase windings are energized and excited, the motor output shaft will be stationary and locked in position. If the current of one of the phase windings changes, the motor will rotate one step in a given direction. By changing the direction of the winding current in sequence, the motor can achieve continuous step rotation.
3.Performance advantages of permanent magnet stepper motors
1.High precision: The torque and position control accuracy of permanent magnet stepper motors are very high, and the rotation angle can be accurately controlled to achieve high-precision positioning and motion control. This makes it perform well in applications that require high-precision positioning, such as precision machining equipment, automated production lines, etc.
2.High reliability: Since the mechanical structure and control circuit of permanent magnet stepper motors are relatively simple, and there are no wearing parts such as brushes and commutation mechanisms, they have high reliability and stability and can operate stably for a long time. This is very important for equipment that requires long-term stable operation, such as industrial robots, automation equipment, etc.
3.No noise and pollution: Permanent magnet stepper motors do not generate noise or pollutants caused by friction and wear because they have no mechanical contact parts, so they are very suitable for applications with high environmental requirements. This is a significant advantage for equipment that requires a quiet operating environment, such as medical equipment, precision instruments, etc.
4.Controllable speed and acceleration: The speed and acceleration of permanent magnet stepper motors can be precisely controlled by the controller, and have broad application prospects. This is very useful for applications that require precise control of movement speed and acceleration, such as CNC machine tools, automated production lines, etc.
4.Maintenance methods for permanent magnet stepper motors
1.Keep the motor clean: Regularly remove dust from the surface of the stepper motor, use organic solvents that do not cause corrosion to clean it, ensure that the motor surface is clean, and avoid dust affecting the motor's aesthetics and heat dissipation effect.
2.Check the bearing wear: Regularly check the bearing wear and replace the severely worn bearings in time. Ensure that the bearings have an appropriate amount of lubricating oil to reduce friction and wear.
3.Check the wiring and screw looseness: Regularly check whether the motor wiring is loose, and tighten the loose screws in time. Ensure that the electrical and mechanical components inside the motor are firmly connected to avoid abnormalities caused by looseness.
4.Monitor the motor temperature: When the stepper motor is running, it is necessary to monitor whether its temperature is moderate. Avoid running the motor in a high temperature environment, ensure that the motor runs in a suitable application environment, and avoid the impact of high temperature on the motor.
5.Avoid overload operation: Reasonably control the power supply voltage and current to avoid damage to the motor caused by overload operation. Ensure that the motor runs under the specified load to avoid shortening the service life due to overload.
6.Check the insulation performance: Regularly check the insulation performance of the motor to prevent safety hazards such as leakage. Ensure the dryness of the motor windings to avoid the influence of humid environment on the motor insulation material.
7.Abnormal situation handling: If the stepper motor makes abnormal noise or other abnormal conditions during operation, it should be stopped and checked immediately. The inspection content may include whether the coupling, pulley, fastening screws, etc. are loose, and whether the slider, slide rail, positioning sensor and line connection are normal. If an abnormality is found, it should be handled in time and the equipment should be restored to normal operation.
