It's a roughly 3 ft x axis, 4.5 ft y axis and 8 inch z axis.
There are individual motors driving the x and z axis on each side for the hotwire cutter function in which case the y axis is removed and a hotwire is stretched between the 2 z axis.
When being used as a cnc router both z axis move together.
See attached image.
In any case although I only have 4 axis there are 5 motors so I think getting a 5 axis controller is the way to go.
I don't know much about the electronic side of things.
Building the mechanical part is within my skill set but need help with the rest.
So could i get some recommendations for the controller board (I have Nema 23 motors already).
I'm guessing I will also need drivers for the motors? And a power supply of some type?
