And if nothing else, I am trying to keep the cost of this as far under $100 as I can. The avr processor family is more than adequate for human interfacing, a single axis controller, or a tool changer, as I expect you're finding. The 20 MHz parts are even overkill for some of these tasks. I don't see any Xmega macros in the latest Eagle Atmel component library. (I'll have to check up on device availability, and make one, one evening.) With up to three hardware quadrature decoders, and fancy PWM hardware, it is tempting to put a cpu and at least one H-bridge on a board, if only to gain familiarity with the newer sub-family.

Hi Andrey What parts did you do when the motors died ? Did you use the same program? Or Was it the same kind of load or the same kind of movement?

Hi! All thanks for answers. I can make some explanatories to this problem. Milling mashine has 3 axes. The motor on axis Y Fails only. All of axes have identical servoamplifiers and motors. The motor on axis Y does not vibrate and does not rustle, all 3 axes have identical PID adjustments. Ulf, the death of the motor occurs on different executed programs. Amp is matched to the motor.
