As said, higher inertia means they will not accelerate as fast, but you are converting a mill, so it is not as if you are going to be spinning then up to 1000 RPM anyway.
3Nm motors with 5mm lead ballscrews would be ok for the X and Y and a larger motor on the Z.
I have an X3 and this is a similar size, but i think my Z is heavier, i used 3Nm on the X and Y and an SY85STH80 on the Z with a 3:1 ratio for the Z and direct on the X and Y.
Gearing also increases resolution but at the same time means you need to spin the motor faster.Visit Us: www.automationshop.co.uk
