Some questions about the spindle

Hi,
I am building a CNC machine and wanted to buy electronics, I found some boards online but I have a few questions before I buy:

  1. What is the difference between version 3.5 and 3.51? (I have a local dealer who has the 3.5 version)

  2. I have 4xNema 23, here is the link:
    https://www.oyostepper.com/category-7-b0-Nema-23-Stepper-Motor.html

Before finding the boards, my first intention was to buy the gShield v5, but I was told that the gShield has a problem with the top current and can’t handle 2.8A per motor, can the board handle the full load?

Can the main board handle the spindle like the gShield?

Thanks!

Hi @Quentina and welcome to our forum.

  1. Which board with version 3.51 are you looking at? Can you share the link to the product?
  2. Also, you shared a link to several NEMA 23 motors. Which one do you have exactly?

Thank you.
