I'm busy converting a BFE65 head with an unknown XY table + stand. It's coming along well - but
I'm a little stuck with gearing the table/head...
I'm using 3Nm SY60 steppers with a microstepping PM542 driver. It's driving 5mm lead 16mm (RM1605) linearmotionbearing ballscrews. (600/300/300mm) Any idea what factors I should be using to calculate my pulley ratios?
Should I be basing it on what I want the jog speed to be, or max torque or pulses per inch?
Any advice would be most appreciated - thanks!
