Look at these 2 videos, you can see may machine working...

http://www.fxmodel.it/lightspeed.mp4
It's working at 4500 mm/min but it can reach 7500mm/min in working mode and 10.000 mm/min in rapid
Thanks to mach3

Did you put up a description of your machine on here? If not, can you.
That is some fast machining!!

Sure,
You can see a picture here: http://www.fxmodel.it/fresa.jpg
Working area 1260 x 600 x 230mm
3 x Sanyo step motor 4A 3.5 Nm
3 x Micro step driver (italian made) up to 7A and up to 4000 steps/r
Pre loaded ball screw 20x5mm (I don't know if the translation is right)
1Kw 3 phase spindle, ceramic bb
Working speed (with mach3) up to 8000 mm/min (other software) up to 3500 mm/min
Rapid speed (with mach3) 10000 mm/min (other software) 6500 mm/min
Measured precision +/- 0.015mm

Faby, your videos are asking for quicktime to be installed. Quicktime is bloatware, takeover ware, and will not be on many of our computers, especially since it is also know to cause problems with Mach3.
Can I suggest you encode your videos so they can open in winamp or even windows media player ?
Thanks.
-
real player will play these videos, thats what I watched them with.

:) Real Player comes a very close second to Quicktime.
I am amased that people forget to use the free movie editor that comes with XP, and then export the videos out as WMV (Windows Media Video)
At least that way you can pretty much guarantee all windows users will be able to view it without needing a 3rd party bloatware.

I'll convert it next week.

Can you post some more pictures of your machine? Is the machine your design or did you purchase the unit? I'm in the process of designing my own and am interested in the belt (or maybe chain) drive you have for the x-axis; the single stepper driving the two ball screws on each side of the table.
Thanks!

Hi
The machine is a personal project.
I think that in my case, the belt for use 1 stepper for 2 ballscrew, is the batter way.
I found either belt and pulley in a store near here (I live in Italy).
I'll post new pics as soon as possible.
I convert the videos in WMV format so anyone can see it.

Faby,
Thanks for converting, great to see your machine is so fast!

Great videos. Your machine moves very fast indeed.
Thanks for showing us.

Faby would it be possible for you to provide a more detailed compontent list. Are ball screws used everywhere, or are you using some belts? Type of rail system and any other ifo that you could include??
