    Z Axis Pulleys and belt size for X3 compatible machine

    Hi, Recently purchased Grizzly G-0463 mill and want to do a cnc conversion. Having a Bridgeport and lathe to my disposal the brackets would be no problem to make. What I need is a info about the pulleys for the Z axis that cncfusion use in their kits (diameter, number of teeth, etc). Also, the belt size, number of teeth. Who may sell it other than cncfusion. Any and all information to pertaining this i much appreciated. Thanks.

    I think most of us on here got our stuff from cncfusion. They aren't asking much over what the base price of the parts cost. I have the cnc fusion kit, and the pulley ratio if I am not mistaken is 1.2 to 1. I cannot confirm, as I am not near my machine at the moment.

    I have a ProMiCa kit on my X3. It uses 2:1 ratio pulleys on all of the axis drives.

    One of the best sources for pulleys and belts in the USA is Stock Drive Components. You can also check out McMaster-Carr for pulleys and belts.
