    Not knowing what motors are used on the 3040 machines its hard to predict how well the grbr would drive them

    with the stepper driver output limited to 2A
    the torque will be limited and the low driver supply voltage will limit the speed you can step the motor

    it may be worth looking at using linux instead of a windows PC running Mach 3
    not sure of what the free ware is called
