Glad you are getting somewhere, afraid I know nothing about the Xylotex as I have never used them.

I don't think I want to use a belt as small as a XL for moving such weight.  Granted there is the screw and gears but its still a awful lot of force on such a tiny belt especially considering the accelleration.
i'm using the smoothstepper with viper servo drives.the vipers already have optoisolation..i have drives are connected with no bob.have 500cpr usdigital e6d encoders to 5 tpi ballscrew. separate soundlogic board for inputs and relay outputs.large sajo vertical mill 7" gettys
fanuc motors directly coupled to the axis screws. i have never encountered cogging.it can take heavy feeds with 6 inch facemill .the vipers are a little difficult to tune. the latest version of firmware protects the drives from blowing. one thing about the vipers is that you can set encoder count following error and output to mach estop.
