    A great video regarding steppers.
    One small factor to consider is the inductance of both motors, generally, the higher amperage motors generally have a lower inductance. You will find that 36VDC isn't a great test for this for either motor. If you ran both motors at a voltage rated to the respective motors amperage/inductance you would have had a more accurate comparison. The reason your 3A motor is stalling at higher RPM is because the impedence drops as the RPM goes up requiring more voltage to achieve the same result as per V=IR.
    A really easy way to find out what voltage you SHOULD use is to use the equation: 32*SQRT(inductance)
    This will give you a minimum voltage input to your driver that suits your stepper.
    We're looking at doing a video on this shortly as there is some mystery behind stepper motor selection for your CNC and the results users are getting.
    Keep up the great work! awesome content :)

    Franco, Thank you for the great video. You mentioned Clearpath servos earlier...
    I got completely fed up with steppers, hybrid steppers, smooth stepper controllers, gecko amplifiers and inexpensive BOB's. I had many problems with them and chased faults and failures for over two years. Finally, I converted my very large router with the least expensive Clearpath NEMA23 servos and the Integra 7766. The machine has been trouble free for two years with the
    new setup.

      Thanks for your comment. I totally get where you are coming from. The Hicon Integra is (IMO) the best motion controller you can get for Mach4. It is the only one I've found that seems to do everything correctly - but it is expensive. Like you, I was a bit disappointed with the issues SmoothStepper was presenting. That being said, there is an exciting new motion control package from Centroid geared for the DiY market. Google "Centroid Acorn" and check it out. I'm in the process of "kicking the tires" on their Acorn board and matching CNC12 Mill software. So far, I'm impressed with what I'm seeing. Stay tuned for some videos...

    I'm putting a used ground THK ballscrew with 2mm lead and a closed loop stepper to my lathe's x-axis, the error doubles in diameter and the more critical dimensions are usually the diameters so I'm giving it the best shot within my budget. The closed loop steppers are now going for about 100€ for the drive and motor in Europe.

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi. I had the same thought as you and I intended to buy Clearpath Servos - until I added up the cost. The closed loop steppers seem to offer the same level of performance at a fraction of the cost. I'm sure there is some advantage to going with the Clearpath Servos but for my purposes (small CNC mill), the closed loop steppers are more than adequate.

      X and Y Axis:
      Flange: Nema23
      Model: HBS860H+57HBS30
      Power Supply: 36Volt
      Z Axis:
      Flange: Nema34
      Model: HBS860H+86HBS120
      Power Supply: 60Volt
      Documentation is 100% Chinese so download Google Translate to your phone and use the camera function to read the wiring diagrams and instructions. The 1600 oz-in motor may be a bit of over kill for the Z-axis and you probably can get away with something smaller. I think the 425 oz-in motors are going to work well for X and Y.
      If I were going open loop, then I'g use much larger motors for X and Y but in the closed loop system it seems like you can get away with smaller motors.

      That or the power supply is only powerful enough to run one of the steppers and it's driver at a time. Or the second driver has been misswired (Power polarity switched for example), which will either kill the power supply or more likely force it's current protection mode to kick in, disabling power to all connected devices.

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi. Usually, the motor and the driver are a matched pair. I suppose you could try to mix and match motors and drivers but I'm not sure how well that will work. I think it's best to buy the motor and the driver at the same time as a package deal.

  • @jdurhamify
    @jdurhamify 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I noticed that some stepper drivers are closed loop that have feedback connections build in like CL57T; do you know what the difference is between using a blind stepper controller and connecting the encoder wires to a MCU like an arduino board to handle feedback versus connecting encoder directly to a close-loop driver like this? Unclear to me if there is any advantages between the two.

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Until you spend a few thousand dollars, you won't get a MCU that has the horsepower to do true closed loop. Arduino in nowhere close to being able to accomplish this. Your best bet is to use closed loop motors that feed the encoder output to the driver. This usually works pretty good.

      Hi Blake. I used DC power supplies. I don't think polarity really matters on these drives. They can accept AC or DC power. Personally, I'd recommend purchasing the motor/drive/power supply as a single bundle from the sellers. That way, you can have more confidence that what you are getting is properly matched.

Poking around on Ebay, I found this same thing with the servo electronics integrated into the motor much like Clearpath except not as compact, but at 40% of the price. The website is www.jmc-motor.com. It is a Chinese company, and I have no affiliation with it. The price was $90 without the power supply and you don't need the blue electronics box. So it is marginally more expensive than a stepper, but I believe it will be much better.

    First, let me say that I am very new to this world and have little understanding of electronics BUT I am learning. I am looking for a more basic controller. My original intention was to purchase a TB6600 driver, a Nema 17 stepper motor and some kind of stand alone controller that will remotely turn a variable vacuum capacitor being used in a tuning network for a mag loop antenna. All I need to control is the speed (fast for coarse and slow for fine tuning), direction and possibly some way to create (virtual) end stops to avoid damaging the cap (replacement value of $200@) and stressing the motor. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

      You can get really powerful RC car servos that run on anything between 6V to upwards of 12V. They have plenty of torque and there are all sorts of linkages available (for cheap) that you could adapt for your application. Truth be told - you could probably use an RC car transmitter and receiver to control your device. All the adjustments for trimming and setting end stops are all built in ready to go.

    If we have the possibility to put a closed loop on a stepper. why would you ever buy a servo ? isn't it the same at that point, just that the stepper is cheaper "or" ?

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi. Steppers and servos are two totally different motor technologies. Steppers (with or without an encoder attached ) are really good at holding a fixed position. But, the smaller your microsteps become, the less torque you have while moving. Additionally, as you increase RPM on a stepper, they lose torque. Servos, on the other hand, don't have any of the limitations of steppers and they are more energy efficient. The only place a stepper beats a servo (other than price) is the ability to hold a fixed position. Steppers "lock in" like a mechanical break. All that being said, there are some awesome closed loop stepper systems that work GREAT for DIY CNC applications. But, you will never see a stepper on a "real" industrial grade CNC machine. They will always have servos.

    You have set 2000 pulse/rev on both motor, but that is too much for the regular stepper, thats why it gets stalled. Never go over 800 on a regular stepper (I know there is even 256000, thats total nonsense).
    At 1/10 microsteps (2000ppr) you can get about the 14% of the nominal torque of the motor.
    www.micromo.com/media/wysiwyg/Technical-library/Stepper/6_Microstepping%20WP.pdf
    If it was 425 oz-in, it becomes about 60 oz-in motor, its very weak and unstable, of course its easy to get it stalled.
    Closed loop motors are much better for higher revolution and higher microsteps, your video just proved that exactly.
    The rule is simple, regular stepper is fine at low rpm and low microstep, otherwise you need closed loop servo for double price.

      Franco I mean, you went all out on the controller, why not on the spindle. I used a 1000 slot (I think) from automation direct. It is an A, B, & Z encoder. I can look up the one I used for to you if needed. The one I picked was partially because it took only minor adapting to fit the stock Hardinge spindle encoder mount. For a lathe it's essential. On the mill, not sure if you really need it. It will make the coordinated moves for tapping very nice though! My Robodrill has a proper encode like this but that is because of the need for it to be an axis to operate the tool changer. And that brought its own issues for counts per rev vs counts per degree!

      That's the one. In fact, here is the description from my order "TRDA-2E1000VD Koyo encoder, incremental (quadrature), light duty, 1000 pulses / revolution, 0.25 inch shaft, 1.5 inch body, 5VDC, line driver, IP50, 2-meter cable."

    How do you connect a closed loop stepper driver system, so stepper motor to driver and then driver to computer. Please make a video :)

      HI Mert - check out the other videos on my channel. I think you'll find them useful.

      Franco could you send me a link if you have a video in which you explain it?

    Would be nice to see max rpm before it skip steps

    It's rubbish that if a motor is too hot to touch then it's running too hot. If it isn't running hot then you're potentially wasting useful torque. To hot to touch is around 50/60 deg C. A stepper should easily cope with 90/100 C Hybrids can run cooler as they don't need to energise the coils if there's nothing trying to pull it out of position, as soon as something does try then it energises to correct it. A standard stepper has to remain fully energised to act effectively like a brake.

    This seems like an economical choice. www.automationtechnologiesinc.com/products-page/nema23-closed-loop-stepper-motor-system-hybrid-servo-kit/hybrid-servo-drive-kl-5080h/
    Thoughts?

      It depends on the torque requirement. I think the price is directly related to the amount of torque.

    Motors Getting too HOT???
    LOL you're Feeding them w 36Volts!!!
    Most of those motor were Engineered for 5V windings,
    maybe 12 but NOT 36V So why are you feeding them w 36V???
    BC that's what came with a CHINESE Vendor pkg.???
    Well they are into SELLING stuff, but they are NOT Engineers!! and they are NOT applying the OHMS law in determining the proper POWER supply.

      hmmm.maybe that's why my motors are getting hot? Well it's mainly the Z axis...can't touch it for more than 5 seconds after an hour of working.

      @@keithskillz90210 specially the Z axis.
      Change the voltage to 12 V MAX 15
