    Help picking a Driver

    I'm putting together JGro's CNC Router and I have 3 Vexta motors Model C7463-9212kgm, what drivers do you suggest I get for these? or will any driver work for 6-wire motors? looking for cheap solution if possible, any help would be appreciated. Also is that all I would need, hook the motors to the machine then to a driver then out to a PC and then purchase software?

    Thanks guys, sorry I'm new to all this

    Sorry, but since you didn't post the current and the voltage I can't answer you with specifics but you can go to Phil's site at http://pminmo.com and have a look at his boards, they are inexpensive.

    I use the Hobby CNC board with my 5.2v 1.4a motors. works really well and is only 79 dollars. But i am interested if http://pminmo.com/ has a board like the 3 axis all in one board, I'm just not surem I would not mind trying to make my own and see a cost comparason

    I have tested both the Xylotec and the hobbyCNC board, and they both work very well. The Xylotec has special circuity that will make it work with "green" computer systems and also has a the ability to unconnect the steppers from from being driven.
