What kind of thread does the leadscrew have? Metric ot trapezoid or "acme"? You've practically changed everything but the leadscrew, so I see a chance it is the cause for your speed-problem.

Try connecting to a different driver and test it again. If the problem follows the motor it is probably a motor wiring problem. If it doesn't you may have a bad driver. If it turns out to be the...

I am using the stepper motor : 23 hybrid stepper 23HSX-102 and am using the GECKODRIVE G203V and was wondering as to calculate steps required for one revolution.
View ArticleRe: Help with calculating the speed required for motors
Its a 1.8° stepper, so 200 steps per revolution at full stepping. Now you need to multiply that by your current micro stepping eg if your running at 1/8 micro stepping its 8 * 200 if its 1/256 micro...
