So I have been working on redesigning the whole machine. I'm currently going for a stationary gantry design.
Due to the fixed gantry design the heaviest moving part is now the base plate with 30kg. I'm going to use 20mm HIWIN profile rails on all axis.
There will be one lead screw on each axis, no need for two on the X any more due to the stationary gantry. Here i'm going to use 1605 ball-screws. To drive the axis i'm currently looking at using servos in the 200-400W range. There is not the same amount of information on servos av steppers so I hope someone here have some knowledge on servos. Seems like JMC produce the cheapest servos and drives, but I cant find a lot of data on them. If there servos from JMC are good enough i'm probably going to use them. BST automation also seems to have a ok selection on servos, but again there is little documentation to find.
