The shop I work at is giving me a cnc control and the three servo's that go with it.Its off an esab flamecutting machine that has been retrofitted to plasma.Would this be an easy or difficult conversion for a wood router?I have a lot of cnc machining/programming experience, but no machine building/ electronic experience.The motors have L-tec on one side and esab on the other.Is rack and pinion a good way to go for a router, or are ballscrews a better way to go?I don't have all the info right now, as I just found out they were going to give it to me.I'm confident I can build a machine, but want to know if anyone here could offer their opinion.    |

| I have found out that the two of the servos are for x axis and one for the y(across the gantry).This is an L_tec system and appears to be two axis only.Does anyone know if a third axis drive could be added? |
