With the booming development of the motor industry, motor technology is becoming more and more high-tech, whether it is a stepper motor, or DC motor, in industrial production have a wide range of applications, favored by the majority of customers!

Stepper motors and DC motors both have different application scenarios, how to segment to meet customer needs? What is the difference between the two of them in the end and different? The following Vacuz briefly introduce it to you!

1、Different control methods

As we all know, DC motor is a more common motor, its speed control mainly depends on changing the size of the input voltage decision, and stepper motor is different, it is a step-by-step motor, mainly through the control of the stepping angle control torque and speed.

2、Different positioning accuracy

Stepper motor and DC motor positioning accuracy is different, DC motor positioning accuracy of about 1%-5%, often controlled by the driver, positioning accuracy is not accurate stepper motor, stepper motor can reach 0.01%-0.1%, you can see that the gap is still very large.

3, the torque output is different

Stepper motor torque output and stepping angle has a certain relationship, DC motors mainly rely on the voltage level to control the output torque is different, stepper motor is more refined, the output range is greater.

4, the dynamic response is different

Factors affecting the dynamic response of the stepper motor is mainly the control accuracy, DC motors are somewhat different, mainly affected by the load, the change is greater, you can see that the dynamic response of the stepper motor has more advantages.

5, the size of the noise and heat generation is different

Stepper motor and DC motor compared to the former noise will be larger, but the heat generated less; and the latter, although less noise, but will generate a certain amount of heat.

6、Different prices

Stepper motor price to be more expensive, DC motor is more affordable, so to be divided into scenarios, DC motor can be used with DC motor, there are high requirements need to be completed by stepper motor, use stepper motor, mainly depends on the situation.

Stepper motor and DC motor what is the difference and different? The above has made a simple explanation, I hope these tips can help you, and later in the choice of two kinds of motors, but also according to the actual application scene needs to determine.
