Electromagnetic stiffness is an important parameter of stepper motor. It impacts obviously on system natural frequency. In this paper, the torsional vibration mechanism of stepper motor rotor caused by electromagnetic stiffness is studied and the mathematical formula for electromagnetic stiffness is established derived from stepper motor mathematical models. We simulate and experiment on stepper motor with parameters in the paper. Simulation value and experiment value of the electromagnetic stiffness are consistence with the numerical one. So it verifies the existence of electromagnetic stiffness, which provides a basis for researching on frequency variation of motor dragging flexible load.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
