    Correct torque

    I went to Web-Tronics.com Those motors you bought were 450 oz-in steppers for $79.95 new!! You had me excited about 650 !

    I was wrong

    OK,
    I looked further at the description, not the product code and realized the holding torque is 665 in. oz. I am the one in error.

    +1 for Keling motors. THe 425oz-in motor is great. I got that thing running over 1000RPM during testing.

    Here I tried to paste a short cut for you the price is still the same as it was when I bought them. web-tronics.com / motion control / Stepper motor Nema 34 (85BYGH450B-03) if the shortcut didnt work.

    Anybody with some experience/information on the webtronics steppers? I'm just starting to gather info, but one thing I noticed... They now list 85BYG450B as 665 oz-in, and the spec sheet attached claims 6.0v/2.0A. Somethings screwy, and even though my first guess would be the claimed 665 oz-in, it seems wasteful to put a 12w/phase motor in such a large package.

    I had been eyeballing their 874oz-in for X&Y and the 277 oz-in NEMA23 for Z on my RF-31 until I noticed that.

    The holding torque is a very poor parameter to judge a motor by. What matters more is the phase inductance. If it's too high, you won't be able to get any useful speed out of the motors.

    I think all the high torque (ie: >1000oz-in) motors are a waste of money for a typical cnc application. They will deliver much less power than a 400 oz-in nema 34 one.
