Stepper driver board replacement
Hi
A bit not familiar with that type of replacement.
I have 4 nema motors Keling KL23H276-28-4B and I work with Mach3 software.
My Rockcliff stepper driver card 4X discontinued (PN RCF_00110) needs to be replaced. (see picture attached)
What type of stepper driver card would you suggest me as a replacement, with a good quality-ratio and using the same Mach3 settings already registred on my pc.
Thanks
Jack

Get a Gecko G540. Have been using there drives for years.
Re: Stepper driver board replacement
Gecko might be a bit of overkill, but if you have the money, go for it.

Thank you for your reply,
If you have suggestions for cheaper versions it would be appreciated.

Still overkill for a replacement for that board, but they cost a lot less because they are kits.
Are you not happy with rockcliff? They do make a replacement, with a better chip:

Very very cheap. If the original worked, the new one can probably manage. But neither of those drivers can get the full performance out of your 3 amp motors. You need a driver than can do 3 amps all day long, so I would really recommend a 4 amp driver.
