This post explains for the Stepping Motor. A stepping motor, also known as a stepper motor, is a type of electric motor that converts digital pulses into precise mechanical movements. Unlike conventional motors that continuously rotate, stepper motors move in discrete steps or increments. Each step corresponds to a fixed angular rotation, making them well-suited for applications that require precise control over position, speed, and rotation.

Description
M42SP-6NK is Stepping Motor.
1. Step Angle: The step angle is the angle by which the motor rotor moves for each electrical pulse applied to the motor. Stepper motors are available with different step angles, with common values being 1.8 degrees (200 steps per revolution) and 0.9 degrees (400 steps per revolution).
2. Stator and Rotor: A stepping motor consists of a stationary part called the stator and a rotating part called the rotor. The stator contains coils of wire that create magnetic fields when current flows through them, while the rotor contains permanent magnets or teeth to interact with these magnetic fields.
3. Phases and Windings: Stepper motors can have multiple phases, typically two or four. Each phase corresponds to a set of coils wound around the stator. These phases determine the motor’s behavior and the sequence of steps it takes.
4. Control: Stepper motors are controlled by sending sequences of digital pulses to their windings. The sequence and timing of these pulses determine the direction and number of steps the motor takes.
Features
1. High response.
2. High output torque.
3. Superior running quietness and stability.
OUTLINE “M42SP-6NK” has acquired the highest response among the outer diameter 42mm model series-holding torque : 41.2mN·m, pullout torque : 21.6mN·m/800pps, and pull-in torque : 25.5mN·m/200pps (12V DC). With superior running noiselessness and other features, this model motor is the most suited to future, compact electronic equipment.
