Stepper Motor Torque: Up to 1.5 Nm?

AI Thread Summary
Small stepper motors can generate torque up to 1.5 Nm, but this depends on the specific model and its design. For applications requiring higher torque, using a gearhead with the stepper motor can effectively boost its output. Brush and brushless DC motors are also viable alternatives, offering different torque and size options. It's recommended to check the specifications of the specific stepper motor being considered to ensure it meets the torque requirements. Researching online resources for motor specifications can provide additional insights into suitable options.

Hi,

currently I am working on robotics application.

I am using RC Servo motor (because of the size and the torque it can generate)

however we want to upgrade it either to Brush DC Motor, or Brushless DC Motor, or Stepper Motor.

I have been searching for Brush and Brushless, however I forget to check about stepper motor.

I would like to ask, is small size Stepper motor (arround 10 cm in length) is able to generate high torque up to 1.5 Nm? if it is not possible, is there any gearhead to boost the torque? (just like the brushless DC Motor)

Thanks,

Tommy

I'm sure if you look up the specific stepper you are thinking of using online you will find some specs...
 
any website that you can suggest? Thanks

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
