Here is one side nearly completed. I am going to use two motors for this axis. One on each side of the gantry.
Some specs:
Vextra 440 in oz steppers
Gecko drives G201
Radio Shack 30V 1000ma power supply
Nook 1/2" x 10 5 start (2 pitch) leadscrew
Delrin "home made" nuts
So far I got 374 IPM running a 800mhz PIII with MachII
I think I'll need to upgrade my computer to go faster... |
