How Fast Can Stepper Motors Run

Stepper motors are fairly simple to manage having a microcontroller. But if you are seeking to run then at a higher quantity of revolutions per second issues get difficult fairly rapidly. We've been studying about and developing stepper drivers for many years, and lately he decided to develop a high-performance driver according to a MicroChip reference style.

1200 rpms could be extremely higher for many motors and like Rugged says there could be extremely small torque accessible and could be susceptible to missing actions. Bear in mind also that to attain greater speeds with any substantial load your controller should be in a position to accelerate smoothly to that speed or you'll miss actions and therefore position. Because you do not describe your project I've no concept what your specifications are but motion manage projects do  need a little of preparing to become effective.

A 64 stepper motor will spin quicker, because every step is much more distant, it's much more most likely to skip or loose actions. Because you are able to send step signals towards the motor extremely rapidly (computer systems are truly quick in comparison to motors) I do not believe there's any genuine benefit to utilizing the 64 step motor more than the 200 step motor. Just step the 200 step motor quicker. The trick is obtaining a motor and driver that may spin fast sufficient.

Is it possible to drive a stepper motor greater than 1000 rpm?

A 200 step per revolution motor, running at 1,000 RPM must have a stepper drive capable of doing full steps at 3.4kHz, which is well within the range of most motor drive circuits. Here we can recommend you, Leadshine DM542, The DM542 is a fully digital stepper drive developed with advanced DSP control algorithm based on the latest motion control technology. It has achieved a unique level of system smoothness, providing optimal torque and nulls mid-range instability.
However, keep in mind that if you start out the motor at 3.4kHz, it will merely vibrate due to inertia - you don't start a car at 60 miles per hour, you start at 0 and ramp up to 60 MPH, otherwise you just spin your tires.

So you have to design your circuit to ramp the frequency up from 0 to 3.4kHz slowly enough that the motor can keep up. This means you'll also have to take into account the whole drive train - stepper motor, gears, belts, and anything else the stepper motor is moving. This may be a large platform if you're doing CNC, and the inertia may require a very slow ramp up to avoid skipping steps.

Lastly, if the motor isn't powerful enough to move the load at 1,000RPM, then you'll need a more powerful stepper motor. Torque falls as speed increases due to internal motor losses.

Conclusion

If you're trying to drive a stepper motor at high speed, you should really use a constant-current driver circuit, since the voltage required to operate at high speeds will be much greater than that required at low speeds, and since driving enough voltage for high-speed operation into a stalled motor would quickly destroy it if the current weren't limited. If a current-limited supply is used, the motor should continue to supply the expected torque until it's running fast enough that the compliance voltage of the supply is reached.
