Hi guys, have just finishrd my CNC milling/Router machine.
Has been working perfectly (Well Almost) for quite a fewe months now.
Now I would like to tackle a laser. I have the basic design drawn up but am unsure with gearing. I will be using Nema23 300 Oz motors on both axis. After reading through the thread here I am unsure as to what would be the correct gearing.The motors will be driven by a Gecko 540 at 48volts.
Both axis will be belt drive. Machine will be 1300 x 1000mm
Would a 2:1 reduction ratio be adequate?
Would the Max outside diamater of the driven pulley affect the final speed of the system.?
See attached pics for basic design.
Any help appreciated, thanks.
