Building a Mill. Shopping around for lead screws. What would be the ideal routing speed for cuting out circuit boards. The motor I have run verily smooth at at or over 200 rpms 1/8 step. At 5 tpi would put me at 40 inches per minutes. Is this too fast, too slow? I have no idea as to what speed to look for. Most of the lead screws I see for sale is at 5 or 6 tpi. I want to drive the lead screw direct with 269oz stepper motors. Sure need some advice on this before shelling out the bucks here. thanks bill |
