Sorry mate no can do....i just love my Nissan :dance:

Jazz check the specs again, i count 8 wires unless i'm missing something?

Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce....Brum brum................

Didn't really look at the specs close just read 5 phase in the document transcript.!! . . . Best he checks the motors.? . . . .Artmin do the motors have 8 or 10 wires.?

Thats cus you were toooooooooooooo busy looking at my avatar:lol:

Funny that, I never noticed the Nissan before. Guess I couldn't see the wood for the trees :lol:

A few beers in me now, but I can only count eight wires from each motor. Would that still make the Heiz controller dodgy?

Cheers,

Gavin if you wanted to just run the machine and check motors etc then the Heiz controller would probably work ok just don't push the motors to hard. There's only 0.2a difference and it's very unlikely you'll come near that just jogging it around. Just make sure the Heiz is set for parallel wired motors.

How 'hard' you run the motors will make little difference as they'll actually draw the most current when stationary, unless the driver reduces the current there in which case it'll be at very low speed.

Either way, if it gets hot switch it off. Simples...

It is rather distracting.

Those motors don't have much torque (1.5Nm) for nema 34. The datasheet only mentions A and B phases and 8 wires so looks like it's 2 phase. Standard 5-phase stepper motors are 0.72° step angle, whereas this one says 1.8° which is standard for 2-phase 200 step/rev. I've got a fairly big Nema 34 stepper motor lying around somewhere. You can get stepper drivers for them on eBay, but I just made a simple unipolar drive for it and it works. Never actually used it - one day I'll make a proper bipolar drive for it. It's a good candidate for my lathe I reckon...

Just looked again she still gives me a stiffy..!!! . . Errr errr . . No I mean I've just looked at the sheet again and realised I miss read the document transcript.! It reads like 5 phase motors but it relates to 5 step angle. . .Doh
