Hey there everybody,
Decided to try my hand at building CNCs. and Boy does this site have resources for this.
So basically, I want to make a 1.2 x 2m CNC using Aluminum channels. and I wonder if screw driven linear actuators, given that I find screws long enough, can handle such a long run for both X&Y? I can use belts for now as I only intend on using the CNC for marking/scribing, but I have to know if I can use screws for runs that long without issues as I'll probably attempt to add...
Longest Linear rail possible using a Screw driven rail?
