I have a need to use stepper motors that draw more than 3.5amps, so the X-Pro controller's DRV4588 drivers would be exceeded. (2.5amp max) I'd...
Pics please Kyo! (as if you wouldn't)
Let me add that the machine you are thinking about will not be able to use a laser powerful enough to cut Aluminum, and I have serious doubts...
Hey Kyo, One power supply?? Or is that just a "place holder". I can't believe what a fantastic job you are doing with documentation. I've not...
I know this is your build a move might be in order if we go many more cycles I think. :) But in answer, yes. I have used nema 23 steppers as...
I'm using 1/2" 5 start acme screws for the Y axis. Those are on Ebay 304035 1/2-10 x 72 inch (6 foot) 5 start RH Acme threaded rod for lead screw...
I've considered placing a 10mm hardened drill rod in the upper and lower V-rails for that purpose too, but have held off due to the need for...

Awesome build John! But, you do know the old saw about "blood, sweat and tears" is truly just a saying??? :rolleyes::rolleyes::):) I'm really...
Boy, I sure miss-read that post Jon. :oops:o_O Vcarve is a great program.
