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. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
