One thing you might try is back off on the microsteps. Go back to half steps and see if that improves things. Looking at the specs on the motors they seem to...
Were the motors you tried (ie the ones with <200oz in of torque) rated to the same current as the higher torque motors? That's the important thing. You hit the...
Yes, I used the same current for both the <200 in and the 495s. Yes, inductance plays a big role as does rotor inertia. The 495s actually have only a small...

... It's not particularly difficult - 1. TurboCNC MUST run under DOS. Plain DOS, not a DOS box under any version of Windows. Windows 9x will allow you to write...
It's adjustable in the axis configure screen. I think the default is 10us. The width is determined by your motor drive requirement and the maximum speed that...
Blue, As you have learned, you MUST boot into real dos in order for Turbocnc to work. In order to use a mouse, you need to find a copy of mouse.com (do a...
If you're using any up moves on the Z axis during the program you could be losing steps so it will continue to be lower and lower. I would do some tests with a...
