Stepper motor is one of the simple, inexpensive motors that can accurately control rotational angles, so it is widely used in machines. Today plc247.com will guide you to use PLC S7-1200 to control stepper motor in the simplest and easiest way.
I use 2 Phase (4 wires) stepper motor and Leadshine DM542 Motor Driver, this is a very common driver used in machines.
