holy crap it was deffinitely the motors , got some vexta ph299 nema 34 motors off ebay got er moving at 180 in /min im gonna knock it back to rapid at 120 in /min and cut at 80 - 100 , finally in the ball park , ive read a number of posts slamming stepper world , but i m impressed , the only other thing i will change is the voltage , then that sucker will howl

ph299? I've had occasion in the past couple of days to go through the whole set of Vexta stepper catalogs and haven't seen that series designation. Could it be pk299?

I'm just curious if it's maybe a discontinued line, or if I managed to miss something in my reading.

It's an older, discontinued motor.

i can t find exact specs but from what i gather they are about 300 oz unipolar

sooooo


need to make a correction
, i at some point switched to half stepping so the software was picking up double the feed rate , i should have picked up on that right away , but i was so excited to connect the motors that i overlooked that or it was the glue fumes in my shop , either way i got a rapid from 80-100 but ill keep it at 60 to be safe
sorry for the confusion
