Years ago I built a 4'x4' CNC router system. I've got all new motors and a spindle for it. What would anyone recommend that I buy to rebuild the X and Y axis that will make it smooth and accurate? I currently use belts on both X and Y but I would be open to changing. All ideas would be appreciated greatly. I've tried to figure out piece by piece through the parts store but I always feel like I've gotten lost or forgot something.
Okay here is the frame I'm working with. I want to replace the X and Y axis with extruded rails, I have all the electronics the frame will accommodate a 62" x 62" area. I do not need to worry about Z axis.
I have a 4' x 4' machine. I use linear rails. You can buy them on AliExpress. They come in two variants. Round rails and flat rails. I use the round.
