Re: Stepper Motor Codes
Also, what about the 4 wires? Ever seen a 4 wire unipolar stepper? I thought all unipolar steppers were 5, 6, or 8 wires? (Why don't you Google that and get back to me... I think this caper is a bit...

Meh. it's close enough in my book. If you need specific details on a part number not shown in that document, contact Minebea directly. That was the point to my "lecture". This is what engineers,...

I contacted the manufacturer before posting -- they're slow. My question pertained the the code used for the serial. And how is "g4vs" closer to "u" than "b"? And how is a four wire stepper more...

Honestly, beyond this post, I don't intend to address any further questions from you, wherever they're posted. your attitude is typically adolescent and unworthy of my assistance.

currently i am testing what a manufacturer claims to be a NEMA 23 400step/rev 120 oz-in stepper. it is worse than my NEMA 17 42 oz-in sanyo. i have tried voltages ranging from 10- 26v and all current...

@Kenzu: Thanks! Excellent info and exactly what I was looking for. I heard back from the manufacturer yesterday and they refused to give me the specs because it was a custom order.
