 Bigger Bigger Smaller Smaller Reset Reset
Hi

I am constructing a XYZ plotter rig with the attached specification.
I need to locate the correct arduino driver and software setup for the stepper motors / solenoids i have constructed.
Looking forward to see if anyone can help me with this - to locate it - or if somebody can create this for me from scratch.

Thanks,
James

The X,Y, and Z steppers a 3A or 6A bipolar drivers each (depending on how the windings are wired).

I don't think that stepper motor for the 'cutter' will be fast enough to cut anything.  There aren't any specs given for it for power requirement or maximum speed.

The 'pen solenoid' can likely be controlled with a simple MOSFET.
