    Is this a good deal on a stepper driver?

    Is this a good deal on a stepper driver for budget systems?.
    These take up to 110vdc power supply.

    I've found that nema 34 motors upto 1080oz/in are great with a 80vdc supply.
    Nema 23/24 motors give a lot more velocity at higher voltages too. even with an inductance level up to 3.5mh.

    the leadshine ma840h is a decent driver and has been changed to ma840e . I don't know how much I'd trust them on ali . They aren't going to be leadshine but for the price you can't go too far wrong .

    I recently bought some of these as backup . I haven't had a need to try them yet but everything else I've gotten from these guys has been good .

    I have their DM860T version (110v) and works great on 80vdc with a nema34 1080oz/in.
    The issue with St-online is you have to be careful when searching motors. They have some really bad spec ones.

    on the other hand they have some with really good specs , but I agree that a guy needs to be cautious in his choices . I replace my torus pro motors with some I got from them and the performance difference on the mill was incredible

    I've got an equivelent of these ones:

    At 3mh inductance they're not perfect but they reacted very well once I used 60vdc to drive them.

    Now they have these ones:

    I'll go for AC servos next time.
