First post and wish i had found this forum a few months ago
They say stepper motor suppliers love newbies
I have a Warco wm18 mill and have added a power z axis stepper but it stalls at high speed
This is the driver i am using - https://www.omc-stepperonline.com/di...or-dm542t.html
This is the stepper motor - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nema-23-S...53.m2749.l2649
This is the power supply - https://www.omc-stepperonline.com/po...ent-a%5B6.5%5D
I have set the driver to 4.2a and i think, can't remember without opening enclosure, to 1600 steps/rev
It works quite well but tends to stall at max speed especially raising the head. For info the head does have a gas strut helper
so where have i gone wrong?
