Update:
the Teknic Clearpath SDSK Servo's have been installed and configured.
IF anyone here is on the fence of switching from steppers to servos: don't hesitate... servo's are MILES apart from the steppers.
To call the difference "night and day" would be an understatement.
Once set up - the speed and accuracy is above and beyond of what the steppers were able to do.
completely transformed the machine into something far better.
Last but not least: Teknic.... Frankly, their presales AND aftersales support is fantastic... fast, extremely helpful and spot on.
Those are more expensive than the Stepperonline's BLDCs... but to me - the support alone is worth it.
Also worth mentioning: the manual is excellent, detailed and accurate. The Software is also easy to understand.
The cables and easy plug-in wiring is really neat.
