Hi there,
I'm about to build my second coil winder...it'll be loosely based on a couple of stepper motors contorolled by Mach3 & a user plugin I've found on the Artsoft website (which was only 80% complete)
the thing is...stepper motors aren't famed for high RPM, so it seems that 4:1 gearing would be prefereable using pulleys (this person has used a pulley system in his system
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr2DgNFcp4I"]YouTube - cnc pickup winder - main motor test[/ame]
the thing is where can I source such pulley wheels & belts? (preferably with centre holes/bores that are stepper friendly....Argos don't sell em!
Many thanksLast edited by Lee Roberts; 12-07-2009 at 03:48 PM.
