It's ok I've got broad shoulders and I know you won't be dissapointed provided your not expecting them to match Mitsubishi's or Yaskawa's. I've got some on my Plasma machine.

To the OP then I've been using Closed loop in both Nema 23 and 34's for several years now, I stopped fitting standard steppers over 3 years ago as they just don't compare to closed loop. I wouldn't fit standard steppers these days as the price difference just isn't worth it.

Now to anyone on the forum who's looking to buy I've got a large shipment of Lichuan 4.5 and 5.5Nm 2 phase nema 24's with 70Vac/100Vdc drives arriving later this month which I'm willing to sell a few sets to forum members, also some large mains powered Nema 34's but only got a few sets of those coming.
