Hi
I hope someone can help. I have built a CNC machine using stepper motors that were salvaged from Diablo Daisywheel printers a long time ago.
I am using emc2 and a gecko g540 driver. I am having great trouble in setting the system up and I am wondering if the details I have on the steppers are correct. Label on the motors is 'DC Stepper Motor Type AS-637 Clifton Litton'. I have been unable to find anything about this motor on the internet. Details I found relate to motors from an earlier version of the motor with 7.5deg step angle = 48 steps for 360 deg.
Questions I have, does anyone know anything about this motor?
Or is there a process I can use in emc2 to figure out what the step angle is?
Thanks
