Hi All,
This is my first proper post, just to let you know what i'm up to.
Still in the design stage i'm planning to build a router 1800 x 940, a fair step up from my first one 900 x 500. I've had no background of CAD,CAM CNC or anything so related and it has been a huge learning curve.
Anyway the new one will be made of 2 x 1 box main table frame with 3/4 angles mounted top and bottom on which i plan to use Vee roller guides fitted to the bottom of the gantry. This will be the X axis and will have a 20 x 20 ballscrew to drive it. The gantry will be made of 30 x30 box and the Y axis will again be Vee guide rollers and 16mm ballscrew.
At this stage i'd love to show CAD drawings but it would take me longer to draw them than build the machine.
As soon as i start the build i'll upload some pics.
One quick question before i go,What size steppers should i go for? Are the Nema 23 @ 3Nm powerful enough?
