The minimum dispensable volume is in the mL range.
Our syringe dispenses approximately 1 [ml/mm].
This would mean that with a 200 step per revolution and a pitch of 1[mm] we'd be well within our bounds.
The reason I'm researching other step options is that I'd like to consider using that can be...
Thanks for the replies - they are very helpful!

I appreciate your input very much. I absolutely agree that the minimum travel distance of the syringe is a determining factor in step size.
However, we're designing a syringe pump for 120ml syringes, so the volume for each step is most...
Hey everyone,
I'm designing a syringe pump from scratch for a medical device. This is my first project with a stepper motor so I have a question regarding encoders.
I'm currently using the full-step configuration of the stepper motor, so 200 steps per revolution. Which kind of rotary encoder...
