Hi I am building a laser cutter, bed size is about 1.2 by 0.9m.
I have two 400w panasonic series S servo motors one on each ballscrew driving the y axis
They have a resolution of 5000 pulses per revolution.
Motors are coupled directly onto 20mm pitch ballscrew
I am struggling to keep the postion error low. Depending on the speed it can be as high as 140 pulses. I would like it if possible below 10.
What I would like to know is is this sort of accuracy possible in servo motors considering my application.
Here is a photograph of one of the ballscrew as you can see the gantry is lightweight aluminium.
Many thanks
Gav
