- Length - What length of the actuator you need. Please note it is the total length of the actuator. Travel length/stroke length has been given in the specifications section.
- Stepper Driver - it is required for operating the stepper motor. A stepper motor needs a stepper driver for running it. We offer DM54E stepper driver from Leadshine. Click here to know more about it. You are free to use your own stepper drivers (if you have). Just match its specifications with the data sheet of the stepper motor & make sure it is suitable for this motor.
- Power Supply - A power supply is required for providing DC current to the Motherboard + stepper driver + stepper motor. We offer Meanwell LRS 350-24 power supply which is a 24VDC, 350 watts and 14 amps psu. Click here to know more about it.You are free to use your own power supply (if you have). Just match its specifications with the data sheet of the stepper motor & mother board. Make sure it is suitable for both of them.
- Openbuilds BlackBox Motion Control System X32 - It is a plug & play motherboard/controller for 3 axis motion system. It can run 4 stepper motors (X,Y & Z). No external drivers are required as it has inbuilt drivers. Just connect a power supply and stepper motors to it and start running your motors with openbuilds control software.
- Cable For Motor - Use this high quality, 4 core, shielded cable for extending stepper motor cables. These are shielded cables hence electromagnetic interference is minimal.Use these Shielded Cables for connecting your stepper motors to motherboard & Drivers.
C Beam, V Slot and all related accessories are manufactured in India as per the opensource designs of www.openbuilds.com . We are not affiliated to openbuilds in any manner.
