The most cost will be getting three Gecko G320's. They are $114 each. But if you are already thinking of getting G201's for stepper use then going servos is not much more. |
Well,have I happen to have access to new 450 oz-in hybrid steppers for $49 each. This si what I was basing my comment on.
There are plenty of places to buy name brand steppers at discount prices from companies going out of business or in foreclosure sales if you google enough.
Sorry if I offended anyone
