The NEMA23 stepper the Milo is built around. Genuine LDO Motors 57STH56-2804A — the same motor LDO ships in the official Millennium Mills Milo v1.5 kits. Drop-in for the X, Y and Z axes.
Why NEMA23 (and why this one)
A Milo cuts metal. Unlike a 3D printer flinging a light toolhead through air, a mill drives leadscrews that push the table into the work against real cutting forces. That needs torque and a stiff shaft a NEMA17 can't give. This motor's 1.26 N·m (178 oz-in) holding torque holds position under load and resists back-driving from the cutter, and the fat 6.35 mm (1/4") shaft resists the torsional flex that wrecks accuracy. 2.8 A/phase is the standard drive level for the TMC-class drivers in the Milo's electronics — the matched, validated operating point, not a guess.
