5 However a rough estimate of optimum switching angle can be obtained if the three torque/speed characteristics are approximated by constant torques , effective up to the maximum speed for each angle : The time taken and number of steps executed during acceleration to the maximum speed may be calculated , since for a constant torque , For constant accelerating torque the instantaneous velocity is proportional to time and therefore the distance travelled during acceleration is simply : so for each switching angle the acceleration time and distance can be found : The time taken to travel a total distance of 60 steps can be calculated for each switching angle , e.g. if the switching angle is 6 degrees the system executes the first 25 steps in 94.3 ms and the remaining steps at a constant speed of 540 steps per second : The time taken to decelerate has been neglected in this calculation because the retarding torque ( motor braking torque + load torque ) is , in all three cases , much larger than the accelerating torque ( motor accelerating torque - load torque ) .
