hiya guys.

I've been looking at the steps per mm and I am perplexed as to where the 96 steps per mm came from.

using a stepper motot 1.8 deg with 1/16 micro stepping should give me 3200 steps for a complete revolustion. The circumference of the feed gear is 10.7mm

how can I calculate the steps per mm?

cheers

becky

If the math doesn't make any sense, then go ask your manufacturer

The circumference is 10.7mm... or the DIAMETER is 10.7mm. I'm thinking that your circumference is more like 33.6mm......
