Hi
I have a 4' x 4' homebrew CNC only for light work. The motors are Bipolar NEMA 23 case size. Rated current 1.2A, holding torque 0.314Nm with Routout CNC 2.5 amp drivers. It is belt driven. Working fine but I want to double the motors up for more torque. Instead of 1 motor on each axis I want a motor on either end of the belts instead of just a pulley at 1 end. I have tried it on x axis and works great, using an extra driver board.

Instead of a separate driver board for each motor on same axis, could one driver board control 2 identical motors wired in parallel? (I was told it is possible but better for each to have its own, hence I have a Wanted ad for a driver board )

Thanks
