I have 25mm supported round rails on all 3 axis of my CNC router (for aluminium) . At the moment I have 16mm C7 Chinese ballscrews.
If I were to upgrade each axis over time (for affordability), and go ISSOKU C5 ground ballscrews / BK15/BF15 bearings. But keep the supported 25mm round rails and bearings will this make a good improvement ? I don't really want to spend the extra money to buy linear bearings and rails. But would this (in layman terms) be like buying road race wheels for your car and putting dirt tyres on them ? or maybe it would be a big improvement over what I have now ?
The goal I suppose is limiting tool chatter and improving finish on aluminium.Swedish Storbro Luna - 3 axis CNC mIll - 250 - 2500rpm / 1.1 tonne
