Would you use / contribute to an online listing of good stepper motors for CNC / hobby CNC use? Or is there already one that I don't know about? Let me explain why I'm asking: The Example: Today I updated the list of motors that should work well with the driver kit I sell (Linistepper) to add some good options and make it really easy to find the motors online: There is now a Find column that you can click to search google for the mfgr and model. After you get the first page of search results, if you want to narrow it a bit, click on "Shopping" at the top of the page and google will show you only entries that are known to google to be product listings. http://techref.massmind.org/techref/...tep/motors.htm There is also a form at the bottom to submit your suggestions for new stepper motors. !PLEASE! on THIS list, which is targeted to users of the Linistepper, limit them to unipolar capable only (5 to 8 wire, NOT 4 wire) motors and lower amperage ranges. e.g. less than 2 or 3 amps per phase. The Idea: If you like the layout of the database, I wonder if another version for all types of motors would be useful? Perhaps with a set of columns for the pin out or wire colors if they are known? If I set up something like that, would you use it? Indicate on the poll at the top of this post. If you have ideas on how it should be set up, or if one exists, or whatever, I'd love to hear from you! |
