Suitable controller for 3 phase stepper

I have a Nema 34 3 phase, bipolar, 3 wire stepper motor that has a drive voltage 220v I'm assuming is AC. Has holding torque of 5nm, and current is 3.0 amp.

I have the correct driver ( due to arrive in the post any day soon) What I don't have is a controller, or any idea what controller I should have.

The primary function of the stepper is to drive a linear motion guide from left to right then right to left continuously. I need to adjust the speed, it needs to be low speed. I have two limit switches. Any help would be much appreciated

Post a link to the datasheet for your motor.

I don't have an actual data sheet, that is all the data I have

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.

Please read the first post in any forum entitled how to use this forum.

Can you post a link to your driver so we can see if an Arduino can control it.

Can you post a picture of your motor and its name plate please?

Without seeing the datasheet I have no basis for offering advice. If you are sure you have the correct driver then post a link to the datasheet for the driver.

This link contains picture of motor and specifics, hope it helps http://www.fuyumotion.com/ball-screw-linear-guide/51087041.html

On the related products link there is this 3-phase stepper controller

If that is the driver that YOU have it seems to take the normal step and direction inputs just like other stepper drivers.

Try this Simple Stepper Code
