Thanks, I just started twisting a small NEMA 23 with Mach and a Gecko G540. Very slow it is--thus causing the question............................................................Where would I start to calc a more proper sized stepper? Hopefully, one that will work with the G540.
What are the specs on the motors you have?
And what is your power supply voltage?
And how is the machine drives? Screw, or rack and pinion? If screws, what is the pitch? If r&p, what is the gearing and pinion size?
