Torque Conversion Table
Some stepper motors are quoted in g-cm and some are in oz-in. Here is a handy table to convert between the different units of torque so motors can be compared:Torque Conversion.

Interface and Motors Picked
about 2 years ago - No comments
I finally decided to go with Hobby CNC’s 4AUPC Chopper Driver Board Kit With 23-305-DS8 6V 2A Stepper COMBO. This is a kit that contains:
Combined interface board and drivers for 4 axis
Interface features choppers and microstepping down to 1/16
Three 305 oz-in unipolar motors with 1.8 degrees per step
Why did I choose this? When I
Stepper Motor Drivers and Interface
about 2 years ago - No comments
We have to connect the stepper motors (three, one each for X, Y and Z axis) to a PC. This is achieved with an interface board and drivers. The interface board typically connects to the PC’s printer port and then connects to the drivers. We need one driver for each stepper motor.
When looking at what
Low Cost CNC Milling Machine
about 2 years ago - No comments
The primary purpose of this blog is to document specific technical projects that I will have a go at. First up is an attempt at building a low cost but precise CNC milling machine. I will follow the design by Tom McWire shown here: Easy to Build Desk Top 3 Axis CNC Milling Machine.
So now
