Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Suitable for lathe ???

Hi flyer,

On a cursory examination, this driver/motor package is for cutting foam,
and will have very light weight motors and oz/in. This would not be
suitable for a 10 x 18 lathe! 1.2A unipolar, 24V would not provide much
drive (motor specs not available). Requirements very, you may want/need
from 350 oz/in to perhaps closer to 600, depending on gearing and speeds
you require.
