I got 4 of them. So far I have hooked one axis up to my machine. With my
previous stepper setup on the axis I was getting 45 - 50 ipm reliably and
could get the axis to go up to 90 ipm, but it would occasionally stall. With
the Gecko servo drive I am now getting 180 ipm reliably and the slow speed
moves have become much smoother.
