    Looking for a driver for this stepper!

    Hello Everybody,
    I'm really new to the CNC world and I need some help.
    I have got a stepper motor from a copier machine for really cheap price (10$) and would like to find a driver for it.

    The following is what I got from the motor label:

    Astrosyn Stepper
    Type 23KM-K047
    4.65V
    1.5A
    Step: 1.8 DEG
    Minebea Co. LTD

    Please help me find a driver for it.

    Warmest regards,
    Dahman

    Looks like it's a standard 6 wire motor Minebea 2
    The Linistepper will do a fine job of driving that motor. Other than that, I would recommend a Geckodrive unit... although that is probably more than it needs. PLEASE don't buy those cheap Chinese 6560 drivers before you search on CNCZone.com and see how much trouble people have with them.
