Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] safe temp for steppers ?

This issue has come up on numerous occasions. Most steppers will continue
to operatre satisfactorially above 155° F. That's hot enough to blister
your hand if you hold it there too long. Don't we have a FAQ paper
somewhere on this list that addresses these kinds of recurring questions...
or is nobody using the resources available?
