General Mach Discussion / A couple of design formulas wanted
« on: August 15, 2013, 06:36:08 AM »
Good evening guys,
Some time ago I was given a formula to work out what holding torque requirements i needed of a stepper motor to run the rack and pinion drive system of my router. It considered the weight of the axis to be moved and the speed of travel. Unfortunately I have misplaced it. Also another formula to work out the power supply voltage to a Stepper to get the best performance.
If somebody has this info, I would very much appreciate it.
