Abstract
In industry, the bulk of the stepping motors is driven in open loop full-step mode with maximum current to avoid step loss. This results in noisy operation due to torque ripples and a poor energy-efficiency. To tackle these problems the current current level at which the stepping motor is driven can be reduced to an optimal level. In this paper, a sensorless load angle controller is proposed and implemented to optimise the drive current level. However, reducing the current level results in a diminished torque margin for load disturbances. In this paper, a countermeasure to enhance the robustness of the sensorless load angle controller against torque disturbances is proposed and assessed trough measurements.
