Hi,
that is quite an impressive hardware list, ballscrews and rails all very good.
I'm a bit questionable about the Clearpath servos, they are good quality, no doubts there, but rather that they are expensive for what you get.
May I suggest you look at B2 series Delta (Taiwanense manufactured in China) or DMM (Canadian manufactured in China) as good quality brands
that won't break the bank and much more powerful for the same money.
I favor Delta servos. A 400W Delta B2 series servo and drive has 230VAC input, no power supply required....they kick arrsse! with considerably more power and control
flexibility than Clearpath's.
