Need some help figuring out how to attach stepper motors on my dm2400 CNC
Hey guys Im upgrading my old Dyna Myte 2400 . Ive purchased Xylotex 4 axis kit with nema 24 426 steppers. This my first CNC build or upgrade.
I decided to go direct drive. Im faced with the problem of how to attach the couplers to the lead screws. The old system had a 10 to 1 gear ratio. So it had a gear before the two nuts that held it on.
Anyways I took pic of kinda before and after . What it looks like before taking the gear off the led screw and after. in the last pic there is a flat on the lead screw for the large gear but I didnt think to rotate it to take a proper picture.
Im kind of leaning towards making my own couplers so I could attach them to the flat on the lead screw were the gear went. I just want everything to go smoothly no binding .
I have tons of tools full machine shop so thats not a problem .
