Looking around I think £330 is about the going price for a full kit...
Steppers - £20 x 3
Drivers - £50 x 3
PSU - £50 x 2
Breakout - £20
There's two ways I can make this cheaper though, I've seen a board that combine the breakout board with 3 drivers, which would save about £60, but they're limited to about 2.5 amps per motor.
The other way is to get a single PSU, the motors I'm looking at have a maximum current of 4A (bipolar parallel) and I can get a 24V 14A supply for £55 that should work, would I find myself wanting a higher voltage supply though? |
