I am working on a 5 axis PM940 based around a 12" bridgeport rotary table for the c axis and some wheel hub bearings for the a axis. The large Z travel of the 940 and wide table makes this setup...

All the present grounds are connected to the 5 hole bus, which is to say only the earth ground from the power cable going back to the electrical panel is present. The spindle does not have any...

I disconnected the steppers and put the control box back together. Everything works fine, so the problem is in the steppers, cabling, or stepper drive wiring.
However, the grounding was bad as...
The CNCKit is just aluminum motor mounts. I added 4 stepper motors each which have 4 wires. those are connected with 4 conductor shielded cable to a grounded metal box which contains the 4 stepper...
