Peter,
How are you driving the Z-axis and what is the drive to the quill motion, a worm and rack or pinion and rack?
Putting in a counterbalance arrangement will aid in supporting the weight of the quill etc, but at the expense of adding more mass to move = lower acceleration for the same motor torque
