Hi, leadshine is a china brand of good quality stepper driver (automationlogic seem to be leadshine model DM856 for example, there is a lot of re-branding within leadshine drives)
I like the digital version (DM series, you can tune out some resonance, work well). I don't know much about the standard serie (M series) BTW, nema24 motor is a quite interesting for the size / torque they propose.
