Cheap servo drives & motors 200w- 400w , sourcing ? Europe?

[Boyan Silyavski]

Where to buy from cheap servo motors/drives ? For a small machine, around 200W and one 400W to move the gantry using 2 ball screws.

Any chance in Europe? China?

define cheap :D

a bit more expensive than stepper


Till now i have found cncdrive http://www.shop.cncdrive.com/ , but still need to translate iin my mind what 150W servomotor could do . i am making a small machine prototype and would like to test it with servos that will not break the bank. I believe something around 200W would be ok

Brushed or brushless?

Brushless start at around $450 US. Very little price difference between 200 and 400w.

It does not matter really.

I found leadshine have some new motor which i did not know of

Integrated servo motors NEMA 23 motor with1000 encoder & a servo drive at one machine can output 2NM Torque

Quite a contenders for what i need them.

wow for that price they look pretty good eh

im using the DMM kit , for the first time in 6 months the machine skipped , but im sure its a mach3/pc issue

get a set and let us know how they work :D is this for a new project ?
