Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Voltage recommendation for slosyn kml063f07

Chris,

Have you downloaded the white paper from the Gecko site?

They recommend about 20 times the dc voltage. In your case that would be
around 70 volts DC. I would look for a 48 VAC transformer which would give
you about 67 volts DC.

I am using three of the KML series stepper motors with my Gecko 210 deives.
