Stepper motor increase rpm but keep torque

AI Thread Summary
Increasing the voltage to a stepper motor can potentially raise its RPM while maintaining torque, but it is crucial to consider the motor's torque-voltage-RPM curve provided by the manufacturer. The current RPM of 3.5 is too low compared to the desired 18 RPM, and achieving this requires increasing the number of steps per second. Maintaining consistent step timing is essential, as it dictates how quickly the motor can advance to the next step. If the motor is undertorqued, it may fail to turn, highlighting the importance of balancing voltage and torque. Ultimately, careful adjustments and understanding of the motor's specifications are necessary for optimal performance.

increasing the voltage usually increases the rpm and the torque.
Mind you, if the step timing is a constant then, although the motor spends less time doing each step, the average speed should stay the same.

Changing the average speed of the motor, then, involves making more steps per second.
So what controls that?
 
Generally, increasing the voltage to the stepper motor is done to provide more torque. If undertorqued, the stepper motor will not advance to the next step, ie it will not turn.
 
Your motor should have a torque-voltage-RPM curve given by the manufacturer. Your answer is there.
 
Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'
My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
