    General Specs

    from what i gather so far on a cnc router/mill i need a spindle motor of at least 800W and a repeat tolerance of no more than .01 Will be used for wood, plastic, aluminum, silver. What would be some other min specs to look for.

    Re: General Specs

    Smaller spindles tend to use collets with a smaller capacity. Make sure the collets can hold the largest tools you'd want to use.
