!!WARNING!! POTENTIAL CUSTOMER!!! :P
Hello Kreutz, everyone,
this is my fist post in this forum and I would like to show my interest for one of these future board. 4th axis or 3 axis with possibility to upgrade to 4 would be perfect to me.
For now, I think I'm going to buy a bipolar Mechatronic board on ebay from seller "autohec" (how many people uses this one here? any advice? maybe in another thread..), as I am too lazy and too busy to make my own right now.
For a company I co-created 3 years ago that designs and sell FPGA prototyping boards, we used to have our PCB made in China with that company :
http://www.goldphoenixpcb.biz, we actually bought their 50-60 dollars "package" on eBay and got a pretty decent amount of boards of really good quality, I think only one or two bare pcb had a flaw amoung the 70-80.
I believe you use a similar company or intend to. For a 10 000 dollars order or so, and if you ship them the components, they can also assemble the boards , for about 1 or 2 cents per solder point, lol!.... but that's a lot of board at once...
Anyway, I'll be glad to follow the updates of that project and will soon post new threads as I have a lot of questions and advices to ask this community as my precision ground ballscrews will be arriving in 1 or 2 days.
