Stepper Motor Calculations

Steps & Frequency

Step Angle: 1.8°  
Physical Steps Per Revolution: 200 = 360° in a revolution ÷ 1.8° step angle
Micro-step Mode: 8th  
Effective Steps Per Revolution: 1600 = 8 microsteps per step x 200 physical steps per revolution
RPM (Revolutions Per Minute): 1000  
Steps Per Minute: 1600000 1600 effective steps per revolution x 2000 revolutions per minute
Hz (cycles per second): 26666.67 = 3200000 steps per minute ÷ 60 seconds in a minute
kHz: 26.7 Hz ÷ 1000


IPM

LeadScrew TPI: 10  
Number of Starts: 2  
Revolutions Per Inch: 5 10 TPI ÷ 2 start, so it takes 5 revolutions to move 1 inch
IPM (Inches Per Minute): 200 = 1000 RPM ÷ 5 Revs Per Inch
