Hi,
I am a newbie on this forum, and in the cnc world. No experience in motors, electronics, PLC, etc. I work in marketing.
I am trying to build on a T-slot 40x40 and 40x80 aluminium frame, the system that you will find at the 4:14 minute, in the below video:

Pretty much, i am trying to build a Bottom Friction Feeder to move corrugated sheets that are 3000mm in length and 2000mm wide, at about 2,4kg each sheet, which means around 0.400gr/m2.
My problem is that i don't know the electronic parts that i need for this system to work. I know i need:
- stepper motors ---> but, which one? (nema 17, 23, etc.) ----> Which motor is strong enough to move 2.4kg of raw sheet?
- drivers
- PLC
- power supply
- anything else?
I would need help from someone that knows the exact parts i need to build it, that can tell me "you need this motor, this drive, this plc, etc". I have no idea what i am doing, and the more i search the more i get discouraged.
Any help, with some links for the exact products, would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
John
