Karl on X axis which is the vertical Axis it use's a single 6.5Nm Nema 34 motor which drives 2x5mm pitch 20mm ballscrews connected with timing belts geared 1:2
Running Gecko 203V drives all axis at 76V & think 6A from a home built toroidal transformer but it's been a while so not 100% sure on Amp's.!! Y & Z Axis are direct drive 3NM Nema 34's same 76V @ 4.5-5A again not 100% on amps.

On a side note it's cut it's first(while vertical) steel today without any hassle, 300mm long slots in 3mm mild steel box section 1mm Doc 10mm cutter steady 400mm/min. .:dance:
