    Question What power supply for Gecko 203V

    Hello.
    I want to buy a power supply for 4 Gecko 203V drives with 4 6A Stepper motors (KL34H2120-42-8A).
    What power supply to buy? (Link please)

    How it works? 4 6A motors = 24A or more Power supply?

    You'll probable want a 48V-60V supply that can supply about 18-20A. This might help you out.

    PS: Your G203Vs are being surface-mount assembled right now on the pick-and-place machine. There will be 504 of them run thru the reflow oven by this evening, another 504 tomorrow.:-)

    Speed is proportional to voltage. Using half the voltage will lower your top speed by half. It may also require lower acceleration settings.
