I would assume so. Firstly, you DO realize that the sherline 4 drive box only powers EITHER the mill OR the lathe? You would have to transfer the box between mill and lathe.
The Sherline motors are fairly small. I know you don't need HUGE motors, but.... To get full power from the Sherline motors would require 50 or 60 volts. I doubt the Sherline board or PS is rated at even 36 volts.
The G540 definitely will provide more fault protection, power cability and compact size. You MIGHT be able to get two separate systems for mill and lathe for not much more than what Sherline wants for 1 1/4 systems.
But the Sherline system has the advantage of being available right now.
