I'm busy converting a BFE65 head with an unknown XY table + stand. It's coming along well - but I'm a little stuck with gearing the table/head...
I'm using 3Nm SY60 steppers with a microstepping PM542 driver. It's driving 16mm x 5mm lead linearmotionbearing ballscrews. Any idea what factors I should be using to calculate my pulley ratios?
Should I be basing it on what I want the jog speed to be, or max torque or pulses per inch? 50% torque on my motor is at 1650rpm (5.5k pps)
Any advice would be most appreciated - thanks!
