I would use a cape who can drive DC and BLDC motors with encoder feedback. and has room for 24V I/O thru screw terminals.
A motor such as these types (just an example, maybe different capes for different power ratings) which would make creating tools for industrial situations much, much easier. No need to buy a €250 driver per motor. https://en.nanotec.com/products/2265-internal-rotor-motors/ Such a cape would need to have enough oomph to drive 24V relays, and connect 24V limit or proximity switches. Maybe max out on motor+encoder and have a complimentary cape use the rest for the io’s. Having hardware that drives these motors would help enormously in just creating a working machine (I’m not looking for 3D printing or CNC myself, but for custom machines) It would help me to focus on creating a machine, and not have me connect a bare BB to an industrial driver.
