I very much doubt the MTC machine could even get close to 350 inch-minute. I bet it's more like 10-50 inch-minute. I'm sure the CadCut machine could go faster than the MTC in any case.
As far as the choice of motors you would have to ask the designer, Tom (ninewgt on this board. See the CadCut forum here just under this one.)
My choice of motors is some giant nema 42, 1500 oz-in DC servos that I picked up super cheap. Electronics Goldmine is out of them though so I couldn't pick up any spares, darn it! They are really overkill and too big...but cheap.
I was going to use the Rutex controllers instead of the Gecko's because it looked easier to hook up.
Sorry I couldn't help more! |
