附录A Hybrid Stepping Motors and Drives Hybrid stepping motors derive their name from the fact that their construction is a hybrid between permanent magnet and reluctance motor topologies. Their inherent positional accuracy makes them suitable for a wide range of motion control and industrial positioning applications. This article explains the construction and operation of the hybrid stepping motor. Power converter topologies are presented which are commonly used in hybrid stepping motor drives. Methods are discussed of enhancing performance beyond that achievable by traditional methods. It is shown that the fall in cost of power electronic devices is enabling further enhancements of stepping motor drive technology, broadening the range of applications for this class of motor. by J. D. Wale and C. Pollock Hybrid stepping motor drive applications Hybrid stepping motors derive their name from the fact that their construction is a hybrid between permanent magnet and reluctance motor topologies. Hybrid stepping motors range from miniature motors having outputs measured in uNm and uW to motor producing up to 60Nm of torque and 2kW of shaft power. Stepping motors have traditionally been used in applications at speeds up to2000/3000 r/min, but recent enhancements in drive technology and improvements in motor design are enabling the operating speed of stepping motors to be increased. Hybrid stepping motors are inherently suited to providing motion in discrete, small steps. As a result, they are ideal in applications where a piece of equipment must be moved and positioned accurately, usually according to instructions from a digital controller. Stepping motors are suited to driving low-speed high-friction loads and are ideal for point-to-point positioning systems and applications needing short rapid moves. They have the advantage of being able to operate without feedback devices and this, coupled with the absence of brushes, makes stepping motors virtually maintenanc
