Introduction: 28BYJ-48 Stepper Motor + Arduino + L293D Motor Shield + Processing Setup Test Run
Stepper Motor is a motor controlled by a series of electromagnetic coils. The center shaft has a series of magnets mounted on it, and the coils surrounding the shaft are alternately given current or not.
creating magnetic fields which repulse or attract the magnets on the shaft, causing the motor to rotate.
This design allows for very precious control of the motor,There are two basic types of stepper motors, unipolar steppers and bipolar steppers .
In This post , I will show you how to connect 28BJY-48 Stepper motor with Adafruit l293d motor shield and control over gcode streaming via Processing software. The unipolar stepper motor has five or six wires and four coils (actually two coils divided by center connections on each coil). The center connections of the coils are tied together and used as the power connection. They are called unipolar steppers because power always comes in on this one pole.

Mechanical Data
This Motor has a Gear ratio of 64 , and Stride Angle 5.625° so this motor has a 4096 Steps .
steps = Number of steps in One Revolution * Gear ratio .
steps= (360°/5.625°)*64″Gear ratio” = 64 * 64 =4096 . this value will substitute it on The arduino Sketch
