Glass cutter table

Hi all. I have read alot inhere and there is alot of nice machines made, but I cant find any real good designs for a big glass cutter.
I have a challange as it's a big machine I have to convert to CNC

The table is 6X8Meters and there is 5 cutters

What size steppers do I have to get and also what controler board? is the G540 big enough as I would like to have the cutter to be wheels and not the diamond tab.

There would be alot of Q later on but this is the main conserns right now.

I would say the lack of replies is due to lack of knowledge of the machine you mentioned. Do you have any pictures of it? Sounds huge!

I would suggest one of 2 things,

1. develop a small machine as proof of concept...
or

2. hook up with someone in your area that can help you,
perhaps develop a mock or some type of fixtures etc that can bolt quickly and easily to a standard cnc to prove you idea and concepts are do able...
some times its the technicals issue combined with cost and time are a show stopper.
