Re: New stepper motors?

Now I have ordered the 3 Nm Nanotec steppers with an original brake for the Z-axis. I will report back with the results. Will it be a big difference to my old round steppers?

Re: New stepper motors?

According to the specs:
http://www.sorotec.de/webshop/Datenblae ... 8L3008.pdf
These are 3.2 mH wired in parallel.
Maybe I am missing something here, othervise these seem to be a good match for My machine.
32*sqr 3.2 = ~ 57 V

Re: New stepper motors?

That formula gives 57 V maximum for these motors wired in parallel.
So probably that would work with 48V.

Re: New stepper motors?

I just found Nanotec NEMA 23 motors with 3 Nm torque 4,2 A Then I will not have to modify my motor mounts and can use my existing end switches. I just need new couplings as my shaft is 1/4" and the new motors 8 mm axis. I Think that these may be a good match for my machine as I have 1,1 Nm old stepp...

Re: New stepper motors?

Thanks for your answers.
I have found adapter plates so that I can use NEMA 34 steppers on my NEMA 23 mounts.
It will add about 1 kg to my Z-Axis but more than double the torque will handle that I suppose.

Re: Suggestion for future upgrades

I have now tested and my custom keyboard layout created with MS Keyboard Layout Manager switches from comma to dot when I am in V-Carve even if I quit the program and go back. I started Excel and had comma and then started V-Carve and had decimal point. Maybe that is because Excel use regional setti...

Re: Suggestion for future upgrades

Found The Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator at this location: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964665 It was easy to load my existing keyboard and edit my decimal character on the numerical part of my keyboard. The application even made the DLLs and a installer package to install the new k...

Suggestion for future upgrades

Would it be possible to use the regional settings for the numerical decimal point? In Swedish regional settings we have the , as decimal point instead of the . in UK and others. This has the effect that I cannot use the numerical section of the keyboard as the decimal point is , I completely love th...
