Stepper Motor Maximum Speed using Arduino and DM542 - How Fast Can It Go?

In this video I show you how to determine the maximum speed for your stepper motor and how to reach that speed using an Arduino and a DM542 stepper motor controller.

Amazing video.

[@ScienceFunInnovations]

Glad you enjoyed it. Another one on constant acceleration next week.

Is there s feedback loop available, some sensing that can tell the ucontroller whether the shaft is lagging behind expected position?
Do motors offer positional feedback, or is that a separate attached sensor? Is parasitic sending of magnet position in motors done?

[@ScienceFunInnovations]

You can buy stepper motors with feedback. That can let the software know that the motor is missing steps. They just cost a little bit more.

@@ScienceFunInnovations Very cool! Do you know what that is called, or perhaps some part numbers of such motors?

[@thomastipton7264]

I am curious about the motors' performance at a high rpm under load. (overheat?) Good job on the setup.

[@ScienceFunInnovations]

With high rpm there is lower torque. It didn't seem to get hotter than normal. Next week I will have a video showing constant acceleration which will be better for high loads. Thanks!

@@ScienceFunInnovations Awsome looking forward to it 👍 👍
