    It looks like you have this setup;

    3163B Stepper Driver
    set to;

    Dynamic Current = 2.5A
    1/8 Microstep
    50% Standstill Current

    57HD5401-14S/8 Stepper Motor

    1.8 step angle
    6.6V
    3A
    2.2 Ohms
    8mH
    17kg/cm
    4 wire

    24v 8.3A DC PSU
    1605 ball screws


    And that being so, the settings you have seem to be okay as far as I can make out.
    However I did a conversion of the motor torque setting and 17 kg/cm = 1.6671305 Nm, this is not so good but as your video shows they are not under load.

    I think you could reduce the microstepping and see if that helps, remember to change the Mach3 'steps per' to match.

    5m pitch
    1.8 deg motor
    1/8 microstep (8)

    360/1.8 = 200
    200/5 = 40
    8 * 40 = 320 steps per

    ------------------------------

    Reduce microstepping to 2 by setting K1 ON, K2 OFF

    5m pitch
    1.8 deg motor
    1/2 microstep (2)

    360/1.8 = 200
    200/5 = 40
    2 * 40 = 80 steps per
