This is my latest build, a "gantry style router". The picture is just a rough sketch of the outlines but this is the plan so far.

Travels: X ~1400mm Y ~1000mm Z ~300mm

X will be driven by 2 4x16mm trapezoidal screws via belt to a servo.

Y will have the same screw as X and either a servo or a stepper driving it.

Z -"- stepper driven since i dont need much speed here, it will be geared down via a belt for greater accuracy in z.

0-~10000rpm spindle with atc, high/low gearbox driven by a ~1kW motor and a VFD. 4th and maybe 5th axis will be added later.

First bits are in.  

Started on the gantry, made some last minute changes. After its built i dont have any good way of machining it if i need to so im trying to get all mounting holes etc made before it gets welded togheter.   ...

Tacked up the rest of the frame, when this is fully welded and filled with sand i will start working on the gantry. ...

Old energy chain im hoping to reuse in this project for x and y axis. All cabel will run in the same chain hope i dont get any trouble with interferance altough thhis is begging for it.      ...
