INTRODUCTION FOR INTRODUCTION TO PLC AND STEPPER MOTOR CONTROL
The combined architecture of PLC and Stepper Motor has been an important sequence in Industrial Automation. These days Stepper Motors are widely used in most automation system systems. Stepper Motors are digitally controlled motors used for precise positioning which enable simple and accurate control of angle of rotation and rotation speed. The knowledge to program PLCs to control the positioning of a Stepper Motor enables an individual to design, maintain and troubleshoot automation systems.
