General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach torch height control vs full external Z control

The "new" Proma THC sounds like the Proma THCMC that was around as an option when i had mine, that was direct control but the price increase was not worth it. I too could never get mach's Zrate much above 5% - that was part of the issue, and yes, going higher caused the torch to saw-tooth its way along.
I think even the basic CandCNC units are more than adequate for the average user, they are certainly fast and can move the motor in very small steps, faster than the display update on the monitor.
Keeping the mass low sounds good as does a servo system I think, Is there a specific reason you are building for such high specs?
