That certainly puts it in the running! > What are the acceleration rates on the dedicated machines? Given my heavy custom build platform and 12 V stepper supplies, the accelerations aren't all that spectacular: X = 15 k mm/s^2 and Y = 5 k mm/s^2. The Z axis uses the stock motor, which isn't well suited for microstepping drive, and runs at 1000 mm/s^2. My Sherline runs X and Y at a sleepy 5 in/s^2 = 125 mm/s^2 and Z at 3 in/s^2 = 75 mm/s^2... -- Ed http://softsolder.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
