    Drive torque and pull out torque

    Hi!
    I am reading different catalogs and some of them define the Drive torque/speed curves like this one:
    Catalogue - Vacuum Stepper Motors VSS / VSH: 19 -125 mm in Diameter - PHYTRON - (Version JPG) - page 6

    And other catalogs give the pull out torque/speed, I think this is the most common one.

    I would like to know if they are the same, or what's the relationship between them because I don't find anything about the drive torque.

    another questison, sometimes catalogs only give the holding torque data, is it possible to know the pullout torque from this data?

    As far as I know, "Drive" and "Pull-out" torque are the same. I don't believe there is a reliable way to relate holding torque to pull-out torque, as it can vary from 1/2 to as little as a 1/10th of the holding torque AND it changes with the speed.

    I'll be very interested to see if anyone else comes up with a better way of estimating it.
