Does anyone know what lead screws are used on the Super X1?
Are they M12 x 1.75 for the X and Y axis and M10 x 1.5 for the Z? I have a Metric Super X1 but I think all X1s are metric and only the dials are changed to imperial.

Got a response from arceurotrade.co.uk

Metric Machine:

X & Y 12mm x 2.0mm pitch
Z 10mm x 1.5mm pitch

Imperial Machine:

X & Y 12mm x 20 TPI
Z 10mm x 16 TPI

This is handy if you want to know how to tuning your motors. But remember that Imperial Machines use metric screws too!
