I'm doing a new design CNC build.   I will be using timing belts and
medium-size (NEMA 23 and 34) stepper motors.

Question: What tooth profile is the best to use?   The goal would be
minimum backlash then things like noise and belt wear.   I can choose
anything I want because this is for a new machine.

>From my reading, I think the Gates GT3 profile, with 3mm pitch is the
current best belt type.   Yes I know many mills work fine with HTD or
XL or even v-belts.
