How to use stepper motors

Arduino newbie confused

I am taking over a project that involves moving an object using a threaded actuator rod. We are currently using a NEMA-17 bipolar stepper motor, but the project requires us to replace the stepper motor with one designed for UHV, and I have at least an AML D42.3,

I would like to use an Arduino Mega . 2560 to control a UHV stepper motor. I think this would be a fairly direct replacement for the current Usongshine motor, but I am not sure if I can drive the motor with an Arduino.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
