Hi all,

I'm looking to build a CNC router

The bed will be made from 40mmx40mm T section steel with slotted idlers running on the outer edges (for now ) for the gantry, and similar for the y axis gantry

bed size is 1200mm x 600mm (so i can get a full 1000mm x 500mm cutting are)

I've seen on the net a motor kit, NEMA 23 motors (1.8 step 178.5 oz inch)
DM542A driver
350w 36v 9.7A switched PSU

now will this set up be ok the motors will be driving a belt two to one reduction gear then timing belt for the x and y axis
and a screw for the z axis (200mm)

thanks mark
