Stepper motor

Hi

I need a stepper motor that can pull a load of around 25kg. The stepper motor will be attached to a toothed belt, that is connected to plate that will move left and right on rollers.
Can anyone recommend a suitable motor and possibly controller to attach to a raspberrypi3?.

Many thanks

Hi andywantall,

The load of 25kg is after the toothed belt and is there any gear ratio in this belt system ?
If there is a geared down ratio you will have more torque from your motor, and less speed at the same time.

Something like this might be useful:
