    Hi Katran,
    thanks for your availability, I've sent you an e-mail a few min ago

    I noticed that you choose a "low noise" guide. Does "low noise" guides really makes less noise than "usual" guides ?

    Moreover, I've got a question related to ballscrew accuracy (maybe it could be better to open a separate thread??)
    You plan to upgrade from C7 to C5 ballscrews. Will such upgrade provide a significant improvement in the quality of machined pieces (accuracy of machined pieces). I do not have much experience, but i presume that vibrations of the spindle plays an important role in machining accuracy. Do you know is someone measured how accuracy of a machined pieces is a function of X,Y and Z ballscrews grade ? I think it could be an interesting test.

    Thanks for sharing info about your machine.

    SHS series rails from THK really make a lot less noise ... balls are caged
    in some sort of plastic chain . It realy makes a difference ...

    Upgrading ballscrews is a "must" . At the moment , machine error is
    less than a thounsand of an inch ( 0.02mm ) , but with C5 ballscrews I
    hope to get 0.01mm .

    Vibration of the spindle is a big problem . That's why I bought a big ass
    Colombo ( 10HP , 380V/3ph , 18,000rpm ) ...

    Check your mail ... file ( rar archive ) sent .

    Gabriel.
