Thanx guys for your information :-)
.
Like i said, i`m a newbie on this, and i spent most of my time lately in the evening/night reading myself up on Bob`s, Motion Controllers, drivers and steppers.
Last night i had to tuck myself in bed at 2 o`clock in the night, just before my mains circuit in my head blew :-)
Ok, so i have concluded with the CSMIO/IP-S as my motion controller as it seams to be compatible witch Mach software, and in use by many.
Besides thats the price i have to pay to simplify installation of the original ATC with its sensors and pneumatic valve system.
Listening to you guys, i have choosen to step the voltage up to 72V using the KL-7220 Unregulated Linear 1440W/72VDC/20A Toroidal PSU from Automation Technologies.
(I thought noice was a real issue with CNC machines, and keeping it down to 24Vdc industry standard was considered the way to go?)
Just have to keep noise issues in mind, and shield as much as possible. The cabinet has seperate compartments already, and should help a bit.
As for steppers and drivers, i have decided to use the KL34H280-45-4A NEMA34 640 oz-in 4.5A Stepper Motor, and KL-8056D Digital 2 bit DSP Based - Bipolar Stepper Motor Driver.
Any last minute advice or comments ?

Will try my best to document the conversion and perhaps help others that might be in a somewhat similar situation.Last edited by Proteus; 04-10-2016 at 11:47 AM.
