Currently I'm working on rebuilding a large CNC machine. The machine’s axes weigh up to a couple hundred of kilo’s. This amount of mass needs a lot of power to accelerate and decelerate. To make sure I had enough power I went for the biggest motors I could find and that turned out to be Nema 34 closed loop stepper motors.
The Nema 34 closed loop stepper motor ,from this video, comes with a HBS86H stepper driver. The driver can take 18-70 volt alternating current or 24-100 volt direct current. I’m using a 48 volt direct current power supply for my setup. Closed loop stepper motors have an built in encoder that checks every movement the motor does. Is there a difference between the amount of steps the motor is ordered to do and the measurement from the encoder than the system corrects the mistake automatically. Closed loop stepper motors are for this reason very reliable even when pushed to their limits
The initial plan to control the Nema 34 closed loop stepper motor was with use of mach3. I ordered a Nvem mach3 motion card but I couldn't get it to work. In the end switched to an Arduino nano running GRBL 1.1 and Universal G code sender. It’s a much cheaper alternative and so far it's working great.

    It is funny that most ppl use the VCC as the common, in mine i'm using Gnd as common and connecting the En+, Dir+, Pulse+ to the board. But also, i am using a different board. It worked. I was having issues since I confused that the 24V/5V switch, I thought it was 24V since I was getting this voltage from my Power supply. It was 5V, because i'm getting 5V from the board. -_- Spent 5 hs in this. Learning. Wonderful, tks for sharing.

    Attention to the NVEM card. The card would seem well made, but it has serious software problems: the plugin that is provided does not work correctly, in fact it has serious problems with soft limits and with home switches (this problem does not concern only my controller but all of them, in fact reading from the forums these problems are due to the plugin made really badly, also the manufacturer no longer gives support on this product, so there is no solution to these problems. Below is a list of the problems that this type of card has (NVEM4 V2) Operation problem: crashes, disconnection from computer, soft limit not working, MPG + dangerous emergency (with emergency not restored, the machine still moves using the MPG). If it is still possible, replace it with another controller

I think I will work mainly aluminum One more thing, my fourth axis motor is pretty weak, is it normal or my motor/ motor driver is damaged?

    How does the controller correct any missed steps? Does it stop the other motors until the steps are correct? How much error will be seen in the cut when this happens? I great video would be to cut a circle and a diamond while holding an axis to purposely cause a misstep. It would be cool to see what happens!!

    Everything is done in the blue driver box. From what I understand (haven’t had time to completely read in on the specs) the driver corrects for lost steps in real time and you won’t notice anything while the motor is spinning. I suspect that an alarm mode is triggered when you purposely block an axis from moving and the driver shuts down but I’m not sure on this. Great idea on the test. I will keep that in mind :)

    @@MBcreates The driver has a simple PID controller. Lost steps are corrected by speeding up the motor to catch up. When the error (difference between the reference signal and the ouput) becomes too large, the driver will stop the system and return an alarm. This already happens when the motor is stalled for just a second. You can configure this yourself. The default gains of the controller are fine for normal use, when you want high performance with high accel/deceleration times you really want to tune the controller to your needs. I have the same setup from Leadshine. I believe the one from Banggood is just a knockoff of leadshine but I guess is should work the same.

(Except toy or router or bad Chinese) using steppers??? I also used the same product you're using here... when I used open loop stepper/encoder less stepper with this driver it fries the driver... if you're looking for less budget then go for it... if professional and much better product then servo is much better choice!!
