Custom ESP32 Stepper Motor Controller For Automation

Description

This project involved the development of a custom ESP32-based stepper motor controller for automation applications. The controller was designed to provide precise control over stepper motors in various industrial and DIY projects.

Process Overview

Process Overview

Development of ESP32 Stepper Motor Controller according to ISO9001:2015 and IPC 2 Standards This motor controller can be plugin with a PLC system as well as other control systems It has built in wireless communication, RS485 Communication, Fan for active cooling, limit and control switches for stepper motor precise control and automation, addtionally it also has USB-UART interface for easy programming and debug interface

Components Used

Hardware Components

• AP63203WU-7 (Power Management)
• SP485RENL/TR (RS485 Communication)
• CFM-4010-03-22 (Active Cooling)
• ESP32-WROOM-32UE-N16 (ESP32 Microcontroller with External Antenna)
• TCMT1600T3 (Optoisolators for AC Protection)
• DRV8825PWPR (Stepper Driver IC)
• CP2102C-A01-GQFN28 (USB-UART IC)

These components were selected to enable full control over stepper motor and allow detailed experimentation with external control systems.
