Which stepper motor?

Which stepper motor?
November 07, 2016 05:43PM
Hi, I'm building a metre high delta with a working diameter of 220mm.
I plan to use the Rumba board with DRV8825 drivers, which I already have a stock of, I also plan to have a heated bed which I might run at 24 volts.
My question is what stepper motors should I use in this setup? I'm looking for good detail and will be adding multiple filaments (3) into one extruder plus a separate one for support material when required.
Hope you can help
Thanks

Yes I noticed that could be an issue, I can make up a board to sit between the Rumba and the steppers to compensate for this but would you go that way or not use the drv drivers at all?

Maybe there's something magical about those drivers that I am unaware of that would make them worth the trouble, but there are a lot of drivers out there that don't have to be fixed before they can be used, so why bother with them?
