Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: 80V Toroid & Ferrite Beads

That really depends on what RPM you need - if you run them at 60-70v
(nice voltage for a Gecko) you'll get about 900-1,000rpm. Assuming that
you are going to gear down 2:1 and you have 5tpi leadscrews (typical)
you'll get motor-limited rapids of 90-100ipm which isn't bad.

However, it might be nice to find out what the continuous torque rating
is - I wouldn't expect them to produce 1/3hp at 900rpm. Even with the
heat sink.
