thank you
Holding (stationary) torque of a stepper is the torque achieved when the rated DC voltage is applied, in this case the rated current will also flow, and this will also equal the maximum torque capability of the stepper.
In order to achieve the same torque when in motion, stepper drives use either a PWM or the less efficient series resistor method of control.
