Good job, sharing valuable info, Thanks vince
Jimmy, Thank you for your support. I really appreciate it. I'm glad to have helped. Have a great weekend, and please be safe. Thank you, Vince
This helped alot , my gantry is about 80 lbs on the 4x8 table, so that 600 oz motor will do what I need to do on this plasma. Thanks Sir!!
Hey David, your for sure going to be fine with the 600oz units for that chassis. Thank you again for your support. Vince
This is the info I’ve been looking for. Thanks
Lewy, thank you for your support. I'm glad to hear the video helped you! Vince
thank you, very informative I built a 3x3 table with 8080 frame with ball screws, 100 lb gantry. I use NEMA 23s 570 in oz motor. I have seen these motors twist the frame before the motor stalled.
Hey Gary, thank you for your support, and your exactly right. Steppers oz/in per IN/LB are very strong, and most end users really overestimate their requirements . Thank you,

@@corvetteguy50 I keep seeing these great concrete 3D printer projects, but I haven't seen build details anywhere. Considering the small houses they're building are always charity projects, it's a bit odd that there are no printer build instructions in the public domain. Do you see any problems using a NEMA 42 or 34 in a geared rotary-type printer with an aluminum arm that telescopes, say, ten feet from the center? On second thought, now that I've written it out like this, I suppose the math is straightforward. Just the same, have you happen to have seen any information on the internals of those enormous printer builds? Thanks for any guidance.
@@Chocolatchips , Thank you for your support. I believe those printers are strictly proprietary to the manufactures of them. This is of course not to say they can't be replicated, but the engineering is required to be done by the end user of the project. A Nema 42 gear reduced motor would be the only possible solution for such a robot, or custom made motor.
Large scale production robots like these take ample amounts of engineering knowledge, and money to accomplish, which discourages many of them.
Thank you
Vince

Thx for the explanation, specially for students like us. What would u recommend for turntables or "lazy susan" that can carry atleast 60 kg.
Mr. Santiago thank you for your support. The load your wanting to rotate would require a Nema 42 with at least 2800oz/in motor for maximum stability for that application. Thank you,

Hi, love your channel and info. Great work!! I am starting a DIY project where i am searching for a motor to make a outdoor sun shade blind at the car park. The width of the parking lot is 5.5m so i was thinking to have all the fabric rolled up on a metal stainless bar and have a motor roll it up and down. Which motor would you recommend ?
Falcon Eye Vision, thank you for your kind words, and support. There are many variables to make a recommendation for the motor size you'll require. I would first need to know the transmission you were planning on using if any. I would then need to know the weight of the sun shade, and all rotating components to make the correct decision on selecting the motor to handle these variables. I offer engineering consultations for an in depth look at projects like this, and product designs. Contact me at my email address for pricing. Thank you,
Vince
I have an application that requires a 7.5 N.m torque. which stepper motor would you recommend for this application ? thank you for this video😍

Nice video as always. I see from the tracking my first package is waiting on me at the post office. My wife was picking the kids up at the bus stop when they tried to deliver. How long do you think it'll be before the motors come in?
Hey Jacob, they will be shipping tomorrow as their scheduled for delivery today, and actually just came in as I'm typing this :). Thank you again for your support. Vince
Hi Vince, i found your video very interesting as all the videos you make. I have extended my 6040 on X axis up to 850mm travel so what i ask is, the original Nema 23 270 oz-in 3A will handle the extra travel or shall i go for Nema 23 425 oz-in 3A or even the Nema 23 435 oz-in 4.2A + it's driver ?
Thank you again for your time.
Kind regards,
John.
John, thank you for your support. Motor torque has nothing to do with table length. The torque of a motor dictates the machining capacity its able to handle while under load. If your using metal substrates for machining the larger motors are your best option. If your working around woods, and plastics the smaller motors will be fine. Thank you, an have a great weekend! Vince
Ran across this video in doing research for a new project. Have some questions, thought I would ask here.
Long story short, I am in need of building a rotary table of sorts to polish a telescope mirror.
Normally, mirror grinding machines like this are built with ~1hp 3 phase induction motors using a VFD for speed control.
The tables can be run anywhere from 0 to 60 RPM and gearing is done via belts/pulleys or reduction gearboxes.
Table diameter would be around 18-24 inches and the mirror diameter would be 12-16 inches.
Load placed on the table is typically weight of the mirror + polishing tool + 20-50lbs of weight to help with grinding/polishing.
Let's assume a load of 75 lbs total max, real world scenario probably isn't even close to this. The load will generally not be on center and will overhang the edge of the table at times.
The problem with the 3 phase 1hp motor is that I really don't want something that big so I was thinking of going with a NEMA 34 (1600oz/in) plus a 10:1 reduction NMRV40 worm gearbox as the footprint would be much smaller.
So questions are:
Is NEMA 34 overkill for this? I'm worried about stalling the motor, skipping steps, not having enough torque, etc...
Is a stepper motor even a feasible way forward for this even at NEMA34 size?
Would NEMA 23 suffice? I get the feeling no.
I have experience with NEMA23 ClearPath steppers on my CNC machine I built, they are quite powerful and perform like a champ on the machine. I've tried to stop the gantry from moving forward using my hands but im pretty sure the earth just rotates underneath rather than the gantry stopping. It's pretty strong.
That said, a CNC machine driven by ballscrews and a rotary table with 75lbs of weight on it are completely different applications.
Any thoughts or insight would be appreciated.
Thank you for your support.
Please contact me through my videos description to setup a half hour engineering consultation.
Thank you,
Vince
My application is going to be to drive an 16mm diameter extrusion screw as a part of my capstone project and from the calculations I have done it seems that I may need the 34 but do you think diffferently?
Thanks for this vid!
just bought a nema 23 with 8mm shaft, and I'm looking for a reduction gear, even a simple spur gear.
Not only that I found nearly nothing on eBay and aliexpress, but the very few I did find weren't design the 8mm D shaft.
Any recommendations?
Ofir, thank you for your support. The most common solution is to purchase a gear with a bore of 6.35mm, and open it up to 8mm with a drill, or a lathe pending it has enough material available which most do. Thank you,
Vince
What do you think about 15-20 lbs at 5.3 inches out from center? Would that be 1700 oz inch? Thanks
Thanks in advance..i would like to use nema 23 in my m1tr turret milling machine to power feed x,y and z axis, would it be enough to handle the loads and the machining forces.
Mohanraj, thank you for your support. In order to answer that question I would need to know the weight of the turret, and the transmission its using to recommend a proper motor for it. Thank you,
Vince
Building out a robotics workshop and have limited space, after painting and sorting out power, my first step is going to be a "z-table" made of 4 lift columns (lead/ball screw driven) -- I found some pretty hefty NEMA 23 size steppers that I'm planning to run each column, continuous torque is 58 oz-in at 75V, but it keeps some pretty nice cont. torque at lower voltages also. The max load on the table would be ~100lbs, stroke length about 24 inches - does this application seem reasonable?
Sirius A, thank you for your support. I believe you listed the Nema 23 motor toque you're using incorrectly. Please correct it, and I'll give you some feedback. Thank you,
Vince
So I’m actually working on a project for which I’m making an automatic door, and was wondering which motor to use.?

Can u help me regarding this?
Sathvik, thank you for your support. The motor requirement for your application is based on the loads weight the you'll be lifting/moving. Thank you, and please be safe.

Hi Mate,
I am going to carry a steel pallet (overall weight of 700 kg) over rollers with 2 stepper motors on each sides, do you reckon "Nema 42 CNC Stepper Motor Bipolar 30Nm" is enough for this application?
Thanks for the video, very helpful. Quick question for you, I'm setting up a linear slide system that will initially be actuated via a hand crank handle. The customer wants the option to motorize the slide in the future. Trying to decide on the right motor to use to essentially mimic the hand crank, with around the same speed of travel. What size motor would you recommend for this application? Thank you so much
B Thomas, thank you for your support. Unfortunately I can't answer your questions to support your client until I know what the application is for, and what's the weight the axes will be automating. Please contact me at Storm2313@gmail.com to setup an engineering consultation. Thank you,

Question is can i mill aluminum using my nema23 or it depends on the spindle size what the best spindle to mill aluminum if so thank you for the amazing video
Eclipse, Thank you for your support. A Nema 23 is easily capable of machining aluminum. I designed my 600oz/in Nema 23's for metals, and softer substrates. Here's Nema 23's machining aluminum. ruclips.net/video/LLHbzmXAPps/видео.html
Spindle size does matter, but effects your feed rate variable the most as it has to keep up with the motors motion to provide smooth cutting. Think in terms of a Dremel tool which can cut steel, but must move very slow to do it properly, so the tool will actually cut it.
A well balanced system is key. A 2.2Kw (3HP) spindle is optimal for optimal feed rates. The motors you use should be as strong as possible in a Nema 23 frame.
Thank you, and have a great Labor Day weekend!
Vince
corvetteguy50 // so you mean i need to lower the speed of spindle to get accurate cut and more torque as the torque inversely proportional with the rpm .. my last question is if the 800w spindle 1hp is the only spindle available for now is that ok to mill aluminum as a beginning
@@yasirh2004 No you'll need to lower the feed rate of the systems axis, so the spindle can keep up with the cutting required. 800W was used in the video link I sent you in the previous reply. Start with a slow feed rate with proper lubrication on your endmill, and you'll be fine.
Thank you, and have a great Labor Day weekend!
Vince

@@yasirh2004 You bet...:) thank you, Vince
Can you easily measure the torque that the motor is producing?
I need to build a test bench to know the max amount of force the product can take / find the breaking point
Hey Brent, Thank you for your support. Unfortunately when it comes to engineering seldom are things easy when dealing with measurement accuracy. There are designs on RUclips, but the accuracy is based on the equipment, and the knowledge of the end user performing the measurements. Thank you,
Vince
do you think on the same driver i will see a difference from the 269oz to 425 oz ?? my x axis randomly stalls
Hey Rob, thank you for your support. The difference in the two motor's torque is 9.75in/lbs, so it would make a difference, but I still would recommend going over the axis giving you issues for other mechanical problems to assure its motor torque causing the issue. Thank you,
Vince
What stepper motor would work in a sewing machine? I am wanting to swap motors for better control of my speed.
Tina, thank you for your support. I suggest removing, or reviewing the one installed in the machine to know its current size, and ratings so you then would know the size you require to replace it with. You can then get the same size motor with more torque for faster production. Thank you, and please be safe.
Vince
I am looking to use a motor to rotate a pneumatic cannon; is it possible to axially load these motors or will some sort of rotary table be needed?
Hey Noah, thank you for your support. A stepper motor's load is based on the axis rotating. You would be fine in using them if they have the appropriate torque required for your application. Thank you,
Vince
Hey new to the cnc world, looking at converting my zx45 mill, I have some of the nema 23s with 425oz/in tq sitting here wondering if you think they'd be sufficient for the x and y axis direct drive with ballscrews?
Chris, thank you for your support. They may work, but optimally you would be better with my 600oz (37.5in/lb) motors www.ebay.com/itm/142172266617 for that sized mill. Thank you, and have a great weekend!

You have simplify CNC for novice like me. Thank for a great job you are doing. I would like to move a 250Kg plasma gantry using rack and pinion system and steel roller on a beam. kindly advice on the motor size to use.(with gear and without gear). Thank a million times.
Balogun, thank you for your support. A 500+lb. gantry is only the units weight, but it will be mounted on bearings which will be supporting the load, so the actual force required to move the gantry is much less depending on the quality of bearings. Genuine HiWin is the best. I would recommend my Nema 23, or Nema 34 depending on the length of your chassis. Please tell me, and I'll direct you to the motor. Thank you,
Vince
@@corvetteguy50 Thanks for your response. The length of the chassis is 8 meters. Is possible for me to use stepper motors for this machine without gearbox or pully? If yes what size of motor should I use? Kindly direct me to the motor. Thanks for your support.
No you would require a gear box for acceleration on a chassis that size. I would recommend a Nema 34 do to your chassis length to allow the torque produced from it to allow for higher rapids. Unfortunately their are tom many variables to just recommend one for you without covering the details in your chassis. Please contact me via email to discuss engineering consultation. Thank you,

Hello Sir, I am looking for a stepper motor for one my application which is a rotating table. I would need to rotate the table (22" diameter) in steps of 10 degree with 10 sec pause on each step. Max center weight i would have is 20 lbs. Can you please suggest me a stepper motor, Not sure if i should go with Nema 23 or 34. Also i would be adding an wormgear to the motor.
Varun, Thank you fro your support. Your application would require my Nema 23 600oz motor as it produces 3.5in/lbs of torque. If your adding a a worm gear for gear reduction the motor will produce even more torque, but reduce its available rotational speed. Thank you,

Thank you for your support. The motor for your application is a Nema 23, and I recommend 600oz/in. Thank you,
Vince
@@corvetteguy50 Thank you Vince for the prompt reply.
I have heard that using smaller motors results in more torque at higher speeds because of lower inductance. Is this true? I look at torque charts and do indeed see how nema 32's drop off quicker than nema 23's, but at 1000 rpm's, the 32 still has more torque. This idea seems to be repeated a lot on CNC forums. Any idea?
Digital, thank you for your support. the thing to keep in mind is steppers are designed for low end torque, and not speed. I see this discussed all over forums. The truth is if you use a stepper with more torque the more it has a buffer to move a load at a higher speed. This is because the motor has an extra surplus of torque available. Inductance is a technical term to say electrical resistance, and forum guys preach this everywhere. You should never be selecting a motor just by its inductance, but rather the transmission its supporting as its what actually provides the speed of the system. Thank you,
Vince

Hi,
I have a question...
I am building a full size 8ft by 4ft cnc, and i am using as stepper motors the nema 34.
Do i need to use a gear reduction, or i can assemble them exactly as they are?
Looking forward to your reply.
Many thanks.
Thank you for your support. You don't need Nema 34 motors for that size chassis. You should be using Nema 23's. I recommend using the motors by themselves with a ball screw transmission. If you need more support please contact me to setup a consultation. Thank you,
Vince
@corvetteguy50 Thank you a lot for your reply.
I have already bought the stepper motors, and I'm using a gear rack to move the axis along. I choose the nema 34 as they are closed loop motors, and i have found your video too late. I can't send them back now, so i have to use them. Firstly, i taught i need a gear reduction for them as they are really powerful.
If you drive each y-axis with a separate motor do the torque ratings add linearly. For example 2 x 2nM = 4nM?
No, as both motors are used together with the same stall torque meaning f you exceed one motor's torque the other is exceeded as well
You would require larger motors.
Thank you,
Vince
@@corvetteguy50 thanks for the reply. So if there a benefit to having 2 y axis motors?
None other than system's require it due to their Y axis being to large for a single motor to be utilized. Thank you,

can the nema 23 use a gearbox be able to rotate the thread to press up to 50kg?
Thank you for your support. Yes, a Nema 23 can use a gearbox, but for that torque a Nema 34 would be better with a gearbox to produce that amount of force. You can message me for a consultation at Storm2313@gmail.com for a solution. Thank you,

If I want a stepper motor to rotate a 30 lb shaft, how do I determine how much torque is required to do so? Can't seem to understand what equation or even what exact variables I need to solve this problem. I need to buy a motor but I want to know exactly what I need so I don't overspend.
Joshua, You didn't specify if your using a transmission that the motor will rotate to turn the shaft, or if your using direct drive? A 30 lb shaft would require a Nema 34 based on their available torque output. Thank you, Vince
corvetteguy50 hey Vince, thanks for your reply. I will be using a direct drive. How did you determine i would need a Nema 34?
A 30lb shaft which is rotated easily by up to 100in/lbs of torque using the video tutorial above. Your shaft's weight is only 30% of the rotational torque put out by my 1700oz. All Nema 34's put out roughly 80-100in/lbs of torque. Thank you,
