Servo or stepper?

Recommended Posts

I have my heart set on buying a Liyu DF631 cutter which has a servo motor, in the UK they are £679.00

Just seen on Ebay a used Smurf HWF 1200 which is second hand for starting bid of £100.

The Smurf is a stepper motor and the Liyu is a servo.

The Smurf new is £640.

Which would you buy?

If you had to buy either brand new, which would you choose? Is a servo so much better?

I may get the Smurf cheap depends on how the auction goes?

Thanks

servo - once you go servo there is never going back to a stepper - and have had servo plotters too long here

Hi thanks I saw that but its £100 more than the liyu df631 servo model which is my maximum amount I can spend.

Just wondered what the smurf hwf 1200 was like? It's on ebay and a day left and £100 at moment? Just thought it might have been a bargain?

I think I'll stick with my original plan of the Liyu df631 with servo  thanks

Servo over stepper, always. If you were willing to shell out 679 for the Liyu, then just pay it, unless you come up with another servo machine that's cheaper.
