Hi everyone!
Greeting from Singapore!

I'm new to both CNC and this forum.
Earlier was doing research and came up with a simple design(post on http://www.cnczone.com/forums/diy-cn...er-design.html before I got to know this forum)

After read up more and research, now came up with new design and seeking advice.

Current design using all steel tube and will be welded mostly.
65x65x3mm
150x75x3mm


12mm steel flatbar for all the plates that you can see on the drawing(Read a lot, most people suggest 20mm aluminum for Z axis, will 12mm steel flatbar work?)


Hiwin 20mm rail for X axis, 16mm rail for both Y and Z axis
2 x 2010 ballscrews for X axis, 1610 for both Y and Z axis


Overall length 1m x 1m(External) due to space constraint.
Cutting area will be ~ 700x700mm


Hardest material to be cut will be aluminum.


Thanks!
