Greetings all; Does anyone have any experience with that Automation Tech driver?
I am somewhat (ok a bunch) less than impressed with this DM860 thats driving that 1600 oz nema 34 on the Z screw. Its current stepping profile by the step is horrible and the steps can even be counted when running slow, and it sounds like its skipping every 8th or 16th step, but its not skipping it on the scope. I'd bought the KL6080 thinking of using it on the X motor, but its big enough to run this Z motor, and I am wondering if its noticeably smoother at microstepping than this DM860 is? Can anyone testify? Before I go to the trouble of unbolting the DM860 & swapping it out, which is a certified PITA. Its on a subplate inside this box and the screws are well nigh unreachable to reinstall. And now that the noise is tolerable, I might buy another kL6080, and put that 60 volt supply in to run the x. Thanks everybody. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
