In this dissertation, the designing and construction of the control unit that can be used to control the positioning stages are presented. Stepper motors are used for propulsion. The options for choosing a controller and positioning stage are offered, and among those, the two best solutions for the realisation of mechatronics or positioning system are chosen. For the construction of the control unit, a collection of components alongside with their description and the justification for their choice are introduced. The interconnections of the components and their connection with the computer, positioning stage and the outside electric energy are described. The user interface with the help of which we can easily control the positioning stage via computer is presented. The discussion includes the commentary of the results and meeting of the expectations, objectives and demands that were set.
