I tried that EMF calculator and indeed I see that when I go past 15mm/s (which is 3200steps per mm) then I and get red numbers
It also looks like microstepping has nothing to do with it and also that running the motor at 1A lets me achieve higher speeds than running is at 0.5A (under the condition that the motor can produce enough torque of course)
So now what ? Any suggestions for quality motors which have lower inductance and could give me higher speeds ?
What is the model number of your existing motor; or failing that, its size (including length)? is it 1.8deg or 0.9deg?
3200 steps/mm (@ x16 microstepping) is very high for the X axis of a 3D printer. Maybe OK for a CNC machine where greater force is needed and lower speeds are acceptable. Perhaps you should change to a leadscrew with a lead higher than 1mm?

The current motor is a kysan 1124090 with 4,8mH inductance and 2,8 ohm resistance
I can reach around 13mms on my leadscrew with 24vDC and I can even achieve this while powering the motor with only 0.2A while the motor is rated at max 1.5A
So the motor is too powerfull for what needed.
I tried the EMF calculator (didn't even know this existed) and found out that lower phase inductance can lead to higher speeds.
I cannot us other leadscrews because I bought second hand THK KR20 rails which are ultra high precision screws at quite high price
So I have to stick with them and I have to find motors with lower inductance if I want higher topspeeds. I'd like to be able to reach 20mm/s if possible because the printer I'll make for this won't go faster than that.
Anyway, The motor I'll need probably can we nema 17, but also nema 14 or even 11 since I am perfectly able to run it at 24V 0.2A currently, so there is margin.
Any idea where I could find motors specificly suited for higher speeds and having lower inductance ? I have 1 goldenmotor nema11 here (model 28HD1411-02) and that motor should have 4,8ohm resistance and 2,8mH inductance, so this one should go faster.
Any tip/shints are welcome
If you do it, do it good.

How about these https://www.omc-stepperonline.com/nema-17-stepper-motor/3pcs-of-nema-17-bipolar-45ncm-64oz-in-2a-42x42x40mm-4-wires-w-1m-cable-and-connector.html. More torque than you need, but only 2.8mH inductance and 1.1 ohm resistance.
Most Nema 14 motors have low rated current, which unfortunately also means quite high inductance.

1.8mh
That's a 0.9deg motor, so using it would be a very bad idea in this instance. Is there a 1.8deg version with similar characteristics?

That one looks good! @educa, try plugging the values for that motor into the calculator, with the actual current set to 1.5A.

If I plug this one in the calculator (and I enter 2500mA rated and 1500mA given current @ 24vDC, then this motor should theoretically give me 28mm/s before things go red

I wonder what the back EMF due to rotation is based on. For this last motor that seems so be the limiting factor and not the inductance. It seems like it is related to the Rated holding torque so I guess thats as good as it will get for that motor (if 28 mm/s is the calculated limit, then maybe 25mm/s would be a safe limit and that is a very acceptable speed for what I want to build

I think I found one who will even go faster. he has a little higher inductance, but half the holding torque.
I can move my axis perfectly fine with only 0.2A on the current motors which are rated at 1.5 , so I require very little force.
Chances are big that this motor will have enough juice to move the axis and will also be able to go faster in the end because if reasonably low inductance EMF, but due to the lower holding torque also more margin in the EMF due to rotation of the motor
