NordicCNC's build log

[JAZZCNC]

To me it seems like you favor steppers at for your own builds, but I may have got this wrong. If I am right, I guess you favor steppers for the simplicity and the above reasons?

Yes exactly for that reason! The machines I build mostly go to MEN in SHEDS type users or small business where the speed or high resolutions etc servos offer isn't needed. Reliability and simplicity are more desirable than speed for these users. Also from my point of view it also means less work and happy customers.

A good properly sized and tuned closed loop system is more than good enough for most builds and far simpler.

By the way what would be a good supplier for belts and pulleys? What supplier are you using?

I use a local supplier.
