    To be honest I also had a different machine in mind from what you're planning when you stated your requirements :)

    For calculating the required motor, I simply plugged the numbers in Yaskawa's calculator (SigmaSelect).
    It's a 2005 ballscrew coupled with 1:1 pulleys (I would have liked to go direct-drive, but didn't have enough space to inline the motor). The axis can reach 30m/min because servo max speed is 6000 rpm. Ballscrew critical speed is not a concern since it's short (400mm) and could in theory handle 13'000rpms.

    Yes the axis is all steel, but the spindle is only 2.2kW ISO20 30krpm. The goal is high-speed aluminium milling.
    Nordic be careful here because it's like comparing apples with oranges when comparing Yaskawa motors with Cheaper Chinese motors. The price difference is big and so is the quality. I'd also guess to get those speeds the Yaskawa will use an absolute encoder system with high count encoders requiring a high-frequency controller.

    When you move up into these levels then everything else attached to them needs to move up in quality with it, else no point fitting expensive high-quality servos.
    Your 8K budget will soon get eaten up with motors and ball-screws.
