Hey reprappers,

Is the attached spec good for the mendel?

I got it from : www.osmtec.com

They gave the following quote:

100pcs: USD10
200pcs: USD9.5
500pcs: USD8.5

That *might* be ok for the axes, but is definitely not strong enough for the extruder. My extruder motor has 5 kg*cm of torque, but it probably is a bit overkill. Most people seem to recommend 3 kg*cm for the extruder, and 1.5+ for the axes.

You also want a lower voltage motor to work well with the constant current chopper drives that reprap uses, around 3V is good. With a 12V motor the on time would approach 100% causing the chopper frequency to drop into the audio range.
