Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Opinions on .9 degree steppers

Hi Chris,

They sound good for a Sherline retro! You don't mention the voltage,
typically the lower the better. Vexta makes good motors, and 8 wires
should give you plenty of flexibility. I always need motors... ;>)

Found a web site:

http://www.sciplus.com/

Didn't find any Vexta motors there!

I'd like to hear about the 5-phase sequence. Didn't find it (yet) on
the above site.
