    need advise on metric rack & pinion selection

    I want to make a new plasma table, previously I use belt , this time I want to use rack and pinion

    Table x travel will be 2500mm, cutting speed will be around 8000mm/min, which rack module is suitable ?
    module 1 or 1.5 ?

    thanks,

    Jon

    Hi, module 1 is rather small for that size of table. I would recommend module 1.5.
    Regards,
    Fernando
