This is a problem with motors like the Keling ones, with a 48V rated voltage.
It is far simpler to make a 300V PSU than a 48V one. Simply rectifying
mains voltage
That is what I was thinking, the existing motors are quite old and are
probably not as strong as they should be either, so if I am buying new
drives and motors anyway, I thought switching to servos would be a good
idea, especially since I would need to get some sort of hardware step

Thank You! I somehow missed the presence of datasheet.

As a comparison, the triple stack NEMA 23 steppers are up to 3Nm.

Marcus,
In 2.5 you want to use SUBROUTINE_PATH. See:

It works in 2.5, but not before.

Which would reduce confusion no end, except motor manufacturers want
bigger numbers, so like to use oz-inch in the US.

You need to keep alive down to 7V in an automotive context. (well, at
least to hit the -30C sign-off).
