Just before i start neew thread, in relation to the ballscrew...

We seem to be missing a few balls, after stripping and servicing the main ballscrew, any idea of a good place to order them from if i can get the correct size... ( if anyone else servicing one of these scm morbidelli, it does not dismantle the way the service manual says, its more complete than it looks ).... any suggestions.

secondly, controller options. any suggestions for a controller that could deal with servos and steppers, industrial types. an mot stuck on this, but am thinking i want 4 more motors for positioning, 2 only need to be very light ( scan, cam, touch probe, plastic extruder, ), i also wish to add an alternate Y mech for a laser, but am thinking it will cost a lot less in steppers than servoes, if both are drivable at the same time.

any suggestions.
