Hi all.
I am converting my Milling machine to CNC. I have decided that due to the Milling head being v. heavy to use a drive belt on the Stepper motor @ 3:1 ratio, ie. 20 TPI on the Stepper & 60 TPI on the spindle. My question is this, in view of the myriad of choices, what do the forum members recommend by way of profiles, AT,T,STD,HTD,3mm or 5m pitch.
Were is the best / cheapest place to buy this equipment ?
Your help would be highly appreciated.
Regards
Ray
