    Hey guys.

    i have a openbuilds cnc with the nema 23 stepper. I used a kress spindle, but it died after a lot of use.
    I decided to go for a water cooled spindle this time, but this is a bit more heavy, so i would like to upgrade my stepper motors to something more powerful.

    would swapping out my normal nema 23 to nema 23 high torque just be plug and play with my hardware? (Black box) or would it require other parts aswell?

    thanks in advance

    Plug and play, and a little extra current adjustment on the adjustments on the front. Easy :)
