RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Cables Connecting Stepper Motors to Driver Circuit

Dan:

I bought some DIN 6 pin connectors to connect mine. BTW, I just cut a piece
of OAK with the pattern for the DRO cover panel. I've got some resonance
issues, but other than that, everything is working OK.

| I am in the process of converting my Sherline mill to CNC, using
| Camtronics
| 2A driver board and Shereline's motors (6V/2A) and need advice on what
| cables to use to connect the motors to the driver board enclosure. I am
| considering using D-Sub 9 connectors. My question is, will the typical
| computer cable carry suffient current to safely power the motors
| or should I
| use heavier gauge wire? The stepper motor leads are 22AWG.
| Recommendations
| on alternative connectors will also be appreciated.
|
| TIA
