Hi,
I need to update my old cnc router I built a few years ago. its using some cheap indian servo drives (loose steps at direction changes) and a bitsensor usb motion controller (not as bad as some people claim).
I would like new drives and controller. However Ive been out of the "scene" for a good few years and obviously there is a lot of new products ,and previous products no longer available.
I am not a millionare! so guys, what would you advise? (im in the UK). Previosly I have used gecko 320/340 and cncdrive DG4S-16035. both still available but probably dated now. I have also used cncdrive uc300 usb & ethernet motion controllers.
I have played with hybrid stepper set ups but again they dont seem to change direction properly and loose steps. The power needs to be around 150watts and rpm around 3k
What would be your go to? should I update to brushless or ac servos?
thanks in advance
Tony
