Thank you for the appeasing info MM.
Once the Maslow motors became available I jumped on them and ordered 4 (I’m using one for my z-axis, and wanted a spare). So,didn’t have to demount from the frame, and have as such cracked open the gearbox of the spare and found the following gear ratios:
Twin start worm (Brass) --> 25T Nylon Compund 10T --> 35T Metal Compound 9T --> 29T Metal Compound 18T --> 37T Metal Output gear.
2:25
10:35
9:29
18:27
This corrolates with the thread on gearboxes Whats inside the gearbox/motor?
Have to say, I think the quality of the Maslow supplied gearbox is much better than those I sourced from Alibaba.
So, Guess I have the right encoder res at 8113.73, and the gearbox is good, so maybe I’m just a bit paranoid about the whining noise ;¬)
