I don't think any of the previous links sell NEMA 42 size steppers. Those are big motors. You might look for distributors of Astrosyn or Applied Motion Products. As an aside I will be in Cairo but not likely until the end of the year. A quick check shows that the motor is about 18 lbs (8 kg) so shipping from the US is going to be expensive. Astrosyn is in the UK, so shipping will probably be much less from there to Egypt.

I advise U to go to Al nekhely mall in Cairo (Tahrir square) and U will find a variety of stepper motors but prices might not be appropriate.I wish that this might help U... [/quote]

Why do you reply to old posts?

Especially when the guy hasn't been on since he made this thread?

Thankyou funkydyb for opening this thread, it gives me a chance to share a link i found on converting large Perm-magnet DC motors to servomotors. Although not the same as a stepper motors his Nema 48 sized example would probably be faster stronger and cheaper to make than a nema48 stepper.
