Hi,

I realise i was a little vague with my first post. As this was my first time to post i didnt want to be to specify or seem demanding. Anyway on the electrics front i had some clear ideas but no.1 would like to know if anyone else has tryed this. No 2 has anyone had any bad experiences with any of the components.
Option 1.
Cs Labs CSMIO/IP-M
Leadshine ES-M23480 (8NM) Motors
Leadshine DS-808 Closed loop drivers
Linear power supply.
Heres where im unsure
My machine is 4 axis and i emailed Cslabs about the IP/M and they said use the IP/S. In my head if i have the IP/M with a closed loop system then technically my gantry should be locked together has it should be impossible to lose steps?? Am i completely wrong in this assumption. If anyone has any opinions no matter how negative i would appreciate them , as i would like to get some parts ordered soon.
I should probably mention i already have the IP/M , it was bought a while ago for a different project, but i would like to use it if at all possible.

Thanks Philip
