To convert electrical energy into proper mechanical motion, stepper motors are used. They are also called "brushless DC electric motors," and a full rotation is broken into a series of steps. The position of a stepper motor can be controlled even without a feedback system. This will work as long as the right size motor is used for the job. Both pancake stepper motors and similarly switched reluctance motors work. How things work A stepper motor is like a more complicated version of a brushed DC motor in terms of how it is built and works. Like any electric motor, a stepper motor consists of a stationary component and a rotating component. The stator has teeth with wired coils; the rotor is either an iron core with a variable reluctance or a simple magnet. The rotor is the central piece of iron that looks like a gear. The electromagnet in the stator is set up around it. A motion controller or control circuit from the outside is used to make the electromagnet work. How do the
