Rack and pinion selection
Hi,
I am building a 4’ x 4’ cnc to work with wood and aluminium. Planning on using 25mm hiwin guide rails.
I am quite puzzled selecting the rack and pinion system for x and y axis.
Should I go with a straight or angled gears?
What pitch should I select? I was thinking module 1.5 but not 100% sure what the implications are.
Thanks for your help.
