hello there people, sorry if this is posted in the worng place but didn't really know where to start.
i am currently in the poscess of building a machine and require a power suppy
i live in new zealand and the mains is 240v 50Hz
i am looking at running 4 stepper motors at 36vdc but each one is 4.2Amps and also another motor to run at 36vdc but it's rated at 12 amps
i've looked at trying to wind my own transformer but cannot seam to find all the information that i need like how to work out the size on the E-I iorn cores
i brought a book the other day on how to wind your own transformers with good help in that but i'm still lost on how to work out the above information.
if anyone could help me with sites or recommened ways to get the power i'm looking at that would be great
one other point is that the 36vdc 12 amp motor will handel 48volts
and the 4 steppers will handel from 18 to 60 vdc but i'm just looking to run them all at 36vdc cheers
