    Looking to increase resolution/torque on Nema 23 for CNC rack

    Options.

    1) CNCRouterparts Belt drive 3:1
    2) 5:1 Planetary gearbox (china)
    3) 5:1 worm gearbox

    which would has the least backlash?
    the CNCrouterparts solution seems large and most difficult to use. IMO

    Hi Adam,
    Too be honest we are working on racks as well and are still in experimental stages so we have not decided the best route as of yet.
    As we do develop the ideas we can reach out to you to let you know our findings, as of course, they will be shared.
    Thank you Adam
