OK, Another noobie question. I am going to assume that the Acme is the lowest priced and least efficient of the three for linear transfer of energy? If so, please compare the rack-n-pinion to the ball screws. Which is smoother and more efficient? I am comparing a CNC9000 (ball screws) to a Keling (Acme lead screws) to a Shopbot Buddy (rack n pinion). The Buddy uses a moving table while the other two use a gantry style so this may dictate the need for R&P? Please enlighten me. Thanks...
