Gear Ratio and Step Performance
Next, the table below shows the available gear ratios and output step data. Therefore, users can compare precise ratio, step angle, holding torque, and pull-out torque before choosing a model.
In addition, higher ratios provide smaller output step angles and higher holding torque. As a result, they are useful for low-speed positioning tasks.
| Ratio | Precise Ratio | Step Angle | Holding Torque | Pull-Out Torque |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1:10 | 9.68 | 1.86° | 0.12 kgf.cm | 0.03 kgf.cm |
| 1:20 | 19.36 | 0.93° | 0.24 kgf.cm | 0.06 kgf.cm |
| 1:30 | 29.47 | 0.61° | 0.36 kgf.cm | 0.09 kgf.cm |
| 1:50 | 51.1 | 0.35° | 0.6 kgf.cm | 0.15 kgf.cm |
| 1:100 | 99.3 | 0.18° | 1.2 kgf.cm | 0.3 kgf.cm |
| 1:150 | 150.96 | 0.12° | 1.8 kgf.cm | 0.45 kgf.cm |
| 1:210 | 209.76 | 0.086° | 2.5 kgf.cm | 0.63 kgf.cm |
| 1:298 | 297.9 | 0.06° | Max. 3 kgf.cm | 0.9 kgf.cm |
| 1:380 | 379.16 | 0.047° | Max. 3 kgf.cm | 1.1 kgf.cm |
As a result, lower ratios such as 1:10 and 1:20 provide larger step angles and faster output. However, higher ratios such as 1:298 and 1:380 provide finer positioning and stronger holding torque.
Ratio Selection Notes
- First, for higher speed: Choose 1:10, 1:20, or 1:30 when faster output is required.
- In addition, for balanced control: Choose 1:50, 1:100, or 1:150 based on the load.
- Also, for finer positioning: Choose 1:210, 1:298, or 1:380 when smaller step angle is needed.
- Next, for higher holding torque: Choose a higher ratio when the product needs stronger holding force.
- Finally, for stable operation: Test speed, torque, step response, noise, and temperature under real load.
Recommended Drive Parameters at Different Voltages
First, the recommended driving range is based on the condition that the motor does not produce significant resonance variation. Also, the test uses a stepper motor integrated test system under full-step drive mode with 39Ω motor winding resistance.
In addition, the non-current-limited driving mode follows this relationship: voltage = back EMF + winding current × winding resistance. Therefore, current and torque change with drive frequency.
Moreover, higher driving frequency usually gives lower output torque. However, lower driving frequency usually gives higher output torque.
Finally, the following parameters refer to the input motor specifications. As a result, the output speed can be calculated by dividing by the gearbox reduction ratio.
| Parameter | 6V DC | 5V DC | 3.7V DC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max Drive Frequency | 1400Hz | 1300Hz | 800Hz |
| Speed at Max Drive Frequency | 4200rpm | 3900rpm | 2400rpm |
| Current at Max Drive Frequency | ≤0.12A | ≤0.085A | ≤0.085A |
| Min Drive Frequency | 800Hz | 700Hz | 500Hz |
| Speed at Min Drive Frequency | 2400rpm | 2100rpm | 1500rpm |
| Current at Min Drive Frequency | ≤0.18A | ≤0.155A | ≤0.125A |
| Holding Current (0Hz) | ≤0.30A | ≤0.25A | ≤0.19A |
Therefore, users should choose the drive voltage and frequency based on speed, torque, heat rise, and controller limits. In addition, real load testing is needed before mass production.
