I have seen a lot of high torque stepper motors but a lot of them recommend 36-48v power. As I understand it the Blackbox is designed for 24v. So I am assuming I shouldn’t be looking at anything that recommends more than 24v supply. If I am running 3 steppers on a chain drive system (hence the need for high torque) what should I be looking for? Any help is appreciated.
Use ours - we've spent ages matching the specs so it perfectly suits BlackBox and the rest of our ecosystem for you NEMA 23 Stepper Motor - High Torque Series
Fine on 24v - also works for the folks with 48v Ultimately, the stepper driver is delivering a Constant Current (chopping voltage to keep ohms law true - outputting more like +-3V for our motors. V=I*R. I=current setpoint, R=coil resistance - to keep it true, it has to vary V) Look at the nice low Inductance - that tells you more about its low Back-EMF (self braking) and the nice low voltage 3v coils, (calculated from amperage and resistance) which will accelerate nice and fast on 24v. Current is but one rating. Voltage and Inductance gives you a better clue how the motor will perform
