I'll let Gary answer that one. AC Servos can direct drive....

Look over they systems that I have shown here. I use the SureGear for NEMA34 and another unbranded (import) for NEMA23 motors. You can also change the ratio of your belt boxes, I sold a few dozen of them. It all depends on your budget.

Where is "here"? I don't see any links in the thread - do you mean in your signature?
Thanks

Sorry, I meant here on the forum in the "Buy, Sell, Trade" section. viewforum.php?f=62
There is also usually a video of most machines (the ones I can show) that I build or retrofit. Those videos are on my YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/user/Islaww1/videos

Re: leadshine motor drives
Gary,
what ratio are you running on your belt drives in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AAq8SpJT-w
I have completed my upgrade to the latest rev of acorn software and also re worked my control box and added a control
dash panel also eliminated a bunch of redundant things that were in the old box setup.
my next step will be to increase the resolution on the drives.
I also kept the lizards for the motor drives rearranged their configuration to save space so I could fit the relay board in the box.
here are a few pics of the new box setup:

4.2857 or 3.4285 to 1. Those were the 2 combos I used back then

Re: leadshine motor drives
Gary,
thank you,
mine are 4 to 1 now so no increase there....

Re: leadshine motor drives
Gary,
I am looking to increase the resolution in the final drives
I am currently running 4 to 1 belt drives with a 30 tooth pinion
so it brings the ratio down to aprox 3 to 1.

Re: leadshine motor drives
Going from 4:1 to 3:1 will reduce your resolution (and torque) by 25%. Going to a 24T pinion will increase both by 20%.
Since resolution can be "what you set it at" and resolution via microstepping and available torque are often inversely proportional do you have a specific issue that you are trying to solve? I ask because more router type cutting issues can be cured by more mechanical reduction, rather than less.
