How much torque do the motors have?

0

Tough question to answer, since steppers do not produce constant torque over their entire range. The static torque for the Z axis stepper is 370 oz-in, and the X is 150 oz-in. These are geared 3:1 and 2.5:1 to the leadscrews respectively, so there’s quite a bit of torque capability there at low speeds. If you’re thinking of building your own system, these are probably pretty good numbers to start with. I keep the gibs pretty tight, so there’s a bit of drag in there to contend with.
