Hi Mike,
just been scanning around some of the other servo manufacturers and commonly a 400W servo has a rated torque of 1.27Nm which is equivalent to
160 oz.in. A 400W servo seems ridiculously large on Sherline mill.
My mill having gearboxes and so on is unusual and so my recommendation may likewise be way off as well. Do you have a specification for the torque of
the existing Sherline steppers? You know they work so you might say just double the torque and say 'now it'll work better'.
