The drive unit for a positioning table is driven by a leadscrew directly coupled to the output shaft of a stepping motor. The pitch of the leadscrew = 0.18 in/rev. The table must have a linear speed = 35 in/min. If the relationship between leadscrew pitch p and number of step angles n, is as follows: n=1250p/rg, determine (a) the minimum number of step angles (pulse/rev) in the stepping motor to achieve the required accuracy, (b) the associated step angle, and (c) the frequency of the pulse train required to drive the table at the desired speed.

Question
The drive unit for a positioning table is driven by a leadscrew directly coupled to the
output shaft of a stepping motor. The pitch of the leadscrew = 0.18 in/rev. The table
must have a linear speed = 35 in/min. If the relationship between leadscrew pitch p
and number of step angles n, is as follows: ns-1250p/rg, determine (a) the minimum
number of step angles (pulse/rev) in the stepping motor to achieve the required
accuracy, (b) the associated step angle, and (c) the frequency of the pulse train
required to drive the table at the desired speed.
