MICRO VU MATRIX TO A WORKING CNC MILLING TABLE

Hello. I am completely new to the world of CNC so please be somewhat patient with me as I am still learning. I was able to acquire a Micro Vu Matrix table and was wondering how hard it would be to convert it over to use a router. The table is pretty stripped. It has two Vexta Stepping motors for the x and y axis (not sure if the work) but I will need a new Z axis and all electronic equipment. Any suggestions on where to get a z axis. Would a Nema 23 work for this? I will probably go with a Bosch router to start. ........That's all I got for now. Any help is greatly appreciated.
