The Hitachi M12V, a hand held, soft start, variable speed router I have is rated at 2.5 HP, has outstanding collet concentricity for either 1/4" or 1/2" shank bits, and runs many times smoother than any of the other routers I own. If I were to build me a big gantry machine, I would certainly consider it as the spindle. Your problem would be in either getting a speed control signal into it to substitute for the thumbwheel it now has, or removing it and remote mounting it. I would expect that something like the PMDX-106 could control it easily. Its speed control is very stiff and I have yet to have it even think about stalling. IIRC it can go down to about 5k rpms, tops at 20K + change. Std round body mount.
