About this Calculator:
This Stepper Motor Step Calculator helps you determine the number of steps or microsteps required for a stepper motor to move a specific distance based on various inputs such as stepper motor step angle, microstepping mode, lead screw pitch or wheel circumference, and desired travel distance. By providing these inputs, you can calculate the necessary parameters for CNC machines, 3D printers, or linear actuators.
Guide to stepper motors:
Equations Used:
Total Steps Required: \( S = \left( \frac{\text{Desired Travel Distance}}{\text{Lead Screw Pitch or Wheel Circumference}} \right) \cdot \left( \frac{360}{\text{Step Angle}} \right) \cdot \text{Microstepping Mode} \)
Steps Per Revolution: \( R = \left( \frac{360}{\text{Step Angle}} \right) \cdot \text{Microstepping Mode} \)
