SUMMARY

The discussion centers on controlling motor angles in a satellite project using feedback mechanisms. The user seeks guidance on how to stop two motors at specific angles, indicating a need for understanding feedback systems related to motor control. The mention of stepper motors suggests that they are a viable solution for precise angle control. The user is currently in their third year of study and lacks knowledge in machine control, which is typically covered in later coursework.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of motor control systems
  • Familiarity with feedback mechanisms in engineering
  • Knowledge of stepper motors and their operation
  • Experience with circuit design for motor control
NEXT STEPS
  • Research stepper motor control techniques
  • Learn about feedback systems in motor control
  • Explore circuit design for controlling multiple motors
  • Study programming for motor control using Arduino or Raspberry Pi
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for engineering students, hobbyists in robotics, and anyone involved in projects requiring precise motor control, particularly in satellite applications.

hi every body ..hop u are diong well



in this smsiter i am taking a control subject ,,and there project is required from us ..

i have an idea ..and that's is the head of the topic ,,little satellite ...


wat in mind now that i must get two motors and have to design the circuit to control them ..

but there one thing that i havn't took it yet ..

i didn't take amachine subject and it's for 4th level and i am still in 3rd level


somthing in motors call feed back ..and from this word meaning i wonder

how can i stop the motors at a point i mean an angle how can i stop it at a given angle

i think it's by feed back information to the motor but ?how ?


please need ur help in this

is there anyone ?
 
i don't know why havn't i been responce but wat i am looking for
is not complecated..it's just a project of two motors ..

to make it simple ..imagin like u are dailing with sphirical coordinates ..

and use the 2 dimintion ,,the angles

i just need is there any way i can control the motors ..to stop and 2 angles i give it to the circuit
 
Perhaps this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepper_motor" link will help?
