One feature of a servo system is you can retain some manual use of the machine, and the encoders enable LinuxCNC to serve as a DRO while in E-stop mode. > > > > > Do you want a jog pendant? > No. Control per software. The "hand-wheels" should work also manually. OK, then it sounds like you do what a servo system, where the PC is constantly reading the machine's position. You can switch back and forth between CNC and DRO modes without losing the position reference.
I might suggest my Universal PWM Controller and 3 PWM servo amps. You have a choice of brush or brushless motors. Perhaps it is best to select the motors first, looking for suitable torque and physical size, and then select the rest of the hardware to suit them. An additional PWM output might be used to control the spindle motor. Small stepper motors can be run with drives such as the Gecko 251 at very low cost. Using the above-mentioned system will cost more, but the PWM Controller and 3 PWM brush amps will run US $625.
