George,
I've used RS-232 NEAT 310M stepper controllers in the past (over 5 years ago). They've worked quite well on high volume production lines that ran 24 hours a day.

I am building some linear stages to be controlled by labview... the
application is fairly distributed, so PCI cards and drives are not so
convenient. I am looking for a 1 or 2 axis stepper drive with integrated
controller and RS232 or ethernet communication. The motors are fairly
small (3 amps currently). The market seems saturated with stuff for the
hobbiest, but I am looking for something a little more industrial and use
out of the box. Anyone know of products like this?

We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason. --Jack Handy
