So far so good all axis are running nice and free.
Problems I am having is with motor choice, or rather suitability.
The X Z axis is between 16 and 17 pounds in weight, and am toying with 2 X Nema23 3Nm 4.2amp motors, slaved in Mach3, are these going to be suitable to lift that weight.
The 2.2kw spindle weight is not in the calculations..
One other question, would solid couplers be ok for the Ball rods. Thank you.
