Stepper motor running at fast step speed

[AnimaNonEst]

The song is Bring me to life-Evanescence T.T

[krmusick]

I would have rather listened to the motor.

[PauloOp23]

O ja cie to się kręci

[b131188]

Thanks you for your post. What is the procedure to run the stepper motor from micro controller. plz reply me.

[Electrozonelectronic]

To connect a microcontroller, it needs inputs for enable, step and direction. Quite easy.

[TroutButter]

Wow that music is gay as fuck.

[djrock9000]

That must be very loud lol.

[PleasureTV]

does it work with DC or AC curent?

[Masowai]

The song is called "Priapism" by the band Modern Tumescent.

[MrDraugaz]

@Masowai I found not in internet this band and song :(

[Masowai]

@MrDraugaz Sorry. My comment was a load of horse shit.

[Nolansykinsley]

song = I'm OK by The Robot Ate Me

[TheDeathBlade]

It goes really fast!! Its awesome.. I dont know if it is possible. but i saw a dude that connected it to a mouse. connect it to a xbox controller xD

[KLRJUNE]

Why does every fvcking video have to a rock video?

[m10h20]

Hello can I have the Circuit diagram?

[WildSideLittle]

Hi, I got the same stepper, but I'm a newbie with electronic systems. I'd like to use it but I can't cause I don't know its datasheet. Can you help me?

[WildSideLittle]

Lol probably I've found, what I needed, the driver! right?

[fardoche1991]

what is the name of this song please

[tripturtle]

@fardoche1991 I'm OK by The Robot Ate Me

[ormarcom]

great music...what is it?  sounds like coldplay, but better.

also...cool demonstration of the step motor at such a fast speed. Thanks for posting it.

[Electrozonelectronic]

@ormarcom I chose the music from the youtube library and can't find the details for it. If anyone knows how to find out what the audio track is, please say.

Thankyou for the comment.

[tripturtle]

@Electrozonelectronic I'm OK by The Robot Ate Me

[IgmitOfficial]

@Electrozonelectronic Audio information for this video Artist: The Robot Ate Me Song: I'm OK Album: On Vacation, Part Two Time: 02:56 Genre: Rock :D btw. your shaft looks wobbly :P

[scarredman42]

@Electrozonelectronic Google should be your best friend...

[NathanielSametz]

@Electrozonelectronic The Robot Ate Me, I'm Ok

[patagona97]

@ormarcom it says it under the description [The Robot Ate Me - I'm Ok]

[zanderrothwell]

@ormarcom music is I'm Ok by The Robot Ate Me

[DragonOfRandomness00]

@ormarcom Its "I'm Okay" by "The Robot Ate Me"

[Cgrossmanrun]

@ormarcom i believe it is evanescence 

[ETG311]

@ormarcom lol it is coldplay, how you see the world no. 2

[beteroo]

It's a good video Dude !!!

[Electrozonelectronic]

@beteroo Good comment. Thankyou.

[azzy314159]

To zlwilly .

How unkingd of you sir ,to label me as a liar. ;-)

( to be honest about who I actually am, well, I am in reality a mutated rutabaga) I never subscribed to "family guy" or "Naruto"

Azzy

[zlwilly]

Wow, that was beyond unnecessary. From looking at your profile and your subscription to someone who posts nothing but rips of Family Guy and Naruto, I would venture a guess that you aren't really a 68 year old resident of Pakistan, either. Impostor.

[Electrozonelectronic]

The description says 1200 RPM. The video was made on the fly and it's hard to change the commentary.

Sorry you have been so offended.

Many thanks for your advice.

[nigthmare23]

cool

[vftdhys]

I have a question... What exactly is a stepper motor? I've heard of them before but not what they do.

[Electrozonelectronic]

@vftdhys It is a motor which, when a voltage is applied, moves step by step instead of continuously.

[slycer98]

@Electrozonelectronic - Do you always need a controler to make it work!?

[Electrozonelectronic]

@slycer98  Yes

[1pcfred]

@slycer98 A stepper motor will run on out of phase AC current. Which means if you put a capacitor on one winding you can make the motor go. Figuring out exactly what capacitor can be a little tricky.

[form109]

@vftdhys a Stepper Motor is a Brushless Synchronus Motor that Divides One Rotation into a large Number of Steps Basically....Stepper Motors are used in Precision Type things....i Know Hard Drives used to have them before they started using "Voice Coil" type Acuation.

[hddr3]

put your finger on the edge wile its spinning at 1500 rpm and press your funger in from the side and see what happens! : )

[Electrozonelectronic]

@hddr3 . Not something I could recommend doing because it might cause the motor to stall.

[jodex96]

Does it have a lot of torque?(how do you spell it=0)

[lismcorb]

wow thats fast!

[ChipChesterstone]

omg

[madwilliamflint]

This makes me want to start picking up the old printers that people leave out on the sidewalk.

[Electrozonelectronic]

Exactly. The motors from old printers are usually perfect for this kind of thing.

Thanks for the comment.

[neato3000]

I just did that today! Seriously old scanner, Bell + Howell 2000D FB. The guy said it was free so I walked with it. 3 stepper motors, 2 regular dc motors, a solenoid, plus a whole treasure trove of gears, rods, and recoverable electronics! It's really old so all the parts are beefy as all get out. The weight of the whole machine actually caught me off guard. The funny thing was the guy wanted to sell me the same motors for 5 bucks a piece ha ha. Yyyyoink!

[donnyab]

1. why does it stall like that ? &

2. if there is a load on it I presume it slows down a lot ?

[Electrozonelectronic]

It stalls when the step speed is too fast for the motor.

If there is a load, the motor won't slow down, it will either go at the speed the stepper motor controller tells it to go at or stall.

[1pcfred]

@donnyab The faster you drive a stepper motor the less time the coils have to charge so they end up drawing less and less current eventually they draw so little they have no power and cannot overcome their own inertia.

[hakosuka2]

Oh yes one more thing where can i get hold of a linear motor?

[hakosuka2]

Thanx for the info , i look into them!

[DIVINEBOY2]

thnks dude..

[DIVINEBOY2]

wer did u get dat motor frm?

[Electrozonelectronic]

From the paper feed from an Epson printer. It's an Astrosyn EM-257.

[hakosuka2]

Hi this is probably off topic but seeing as you seem to know your way around electronics do you know which type of motor is the most efficient in terms energy usage for an rc application? Great video

[clownsandcorals]

WOW! how do you do that, I can't get any ware near that speed with my 297 and 298 chopper driver (homebuilt). I am running off a microcontroller and if I drop the pause inbetween steps to less than 2/1000 of a sec it stutters.

[Electrozonelectronic]

Just make sure you have a good PSU and drive the motor at a high voltage with the board current set to high and experiment to see which step resolution gets the fastest speed.

[JS106351]

is that full stepping, half stepping or microstepping? on a bipolar or unipolar motor?

great vid though!

[Electrozonelectronic]

Hi,

It's a bipolar motor and driver with the driver board set on full step.

Thanks for the comment.

[pratikac5007]

hey do you have a datasheet or some info about this motor? I just bought it and want to use it to make my new micromouse....will need it for some preliminary calculations.

[crazyhugs]

sounds like an f1 car

[Electrozonelectronic]

Thanks for the comment. I agree.

[MattUK2007]

Nice work!

Matt.

[Electrozonelectronic]

Thanks for the comment. I meant 1200 RPM. I was talking crap as usual.
