From the original Synthetos forum (2011–2025)
I intend to control four of these STEPPERONLINE 5 A NEMA 34 motors...
and four of these $36 STEPPERONLINE stepper motor drivers...

...with the step and direction signals of this TinyG stepper motor driver:

Is there a 5 A stepper motor driver that takes step and direction signals and is less than $36?
I have no hands on experience but have considered these to be interesting

Many Ox builders use external drivers.
You should see many likes over there.
You seem to be aiming for high power stepper performance, therefore suggest you investigate 48V supply for the drivers (but not tinyG). Or 36V.
Thanks, cmcgrath5035. I ordered that MYSWEETY one and a similar one from RATTMOTOR from amazon.com just now, so we'll see how they work.
Good luck, let us know your experiences.
