Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] step motors for cnc conversion

Well, good luck my friend.

Considering they are double shafted and have that much holding torque, I would say that anyone who has them and have used them are going to keep them.....
It'll be hard to find them cheap by any means in that range/configuration.
It might be best to save some time and alot of headaches and just buy em new from your regular supplier at $150 each....OR

Personally , if it were me and I had it to do all over again..I would invest in servos to begin with if I needed that much torque....at that price($150 each a stepper) a set of good servos can be had on Ebay all day long, and the Gecko servo drives are priced nearly the same as the stepper drives Gecko offers (assuming youre going with "good" drives for your motors).

Regards,
Jim

I am looking for a reasonable source of double shafted size 34 step
motors. Probably about 400 in-oz of torque would be adequate.

I can buy motors for about $150. ea from my regular supplier but I
was hoping to find something much more reasonable.

Any help would be appreciated.
