    Possible Servo Motor

    Would these motors be any good as servo motors in a mini-mill application or are they under powered?

    This spec sort of tells the story

    1-1/3 in-oz torque

    Way too low for a machine tool - even if it is small.

    you want about 1/10 HP to drive the axes on a mini mill, assuming your using a ball screw and will have some gear reduction.
