Hello All,

My first real post here and I start off with a question.

I have a lathe that I recently bought that has a Bandit control.

I was told that the drives for the steppers were not working so I am looking
for drivers for the X and Y motors.

The Y axis has a Slo-Syn stepper that requires 2.1V at 9.2A

The X axis has a Sigma motor that has its identification worn off! There is
a trimstep on the end of this motor, not sure if its a resolver or encoder.

I am wondering if there are any drives out there that can take the 9.2A without damage.

I know that leadshine makes an 8.3A drive and the gecko's are rated at 7A,
and this seems not enough.

Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
