Stepper motor acceleration and deceleration When the stepper motor starts, the pulse frequency should be gradually increased, and the pulse frequency should be gradually reduced during deceleration. This is often referred to as the "acceleration and deceleration" method.

Stepper motors with low speed and high torque equipment make the transmission shorter which means higher reliability, higher efficiency, smaller clearance and lower cost. It is this feature that makes stepper ideal for robots, since most robot movements are short distances requiring high acceleratio
