Hi John,

I agree with you. When I say Chinesium, I am talking about the myriad of no-name clones that have wildly creative performance specifications that don't have anything in common with reality.?

There are definitely quality products and providers in China. After all, 100% of iPhones are made there, and nobody complains about them.

I was looking at Bergerda a while back, but never followed through. If yuo don't mind, can you share some of your project? It would be great to see it.?

Hmmm, Bergerda North American distributor. That sounds good. I wonder what kind of outlay would be required. I am not rich, but I am willing to be adopted by rich people, or find me a sugar mama.?

Andrei,

I'm not sure I'd make that such a general statement.? Like everything there are reliable and honest suppliers and less than that too.

?

I've found dealing directly with Bergerda for purchase and support second to none including their engineers even sending me a cell phone video on some configuration setup.

OTOH, the complaint from Bergerda, and it's a fair one, is the companies that buy in bulk and then resell on AliExpress but provide no support are a big pain in the rear.? Bergerda ends up supporting motors purchased from others at a low price but end up providing free support.? They can't afford that either.

?

With that in mind Bergerda would like to set up a North American Distributor, who would get low prices and surface shipping costs with the idea that service would be supplied locally.? I would do it but shipping from Canada into the USA is worse than shipping from China to North America.? In fact shipping even by post in Canada is more expensive than shipping by post from China.

?

If anyone knows someone who would like to become a servo/stepper motor supplier in North America let me know and I'll pass on a name.

?

Chinesium motors and full and accurate data cannot be used in the same sentence. Go for the big names and you will be fine. Baldor, Leeson, etc. You will pay the price, though, unless you go to auctions.?
