Now that my CNC controller is done and working, I'm looking intoa mill I can connect it to. When I started this project it was
for isolation routing of printed circuit boards, so accuracy ismy main objective. Question is can anyone tell me how much of
a difference ball screws make? Besides to the price tag of course! Is it worth the difference in cost to go with ball screws?
One factor I thought of is that GRBL has no backlash compensation so ball screws would reduce that effect. I think other
s/w such as LinuxCNC or Mach4 has backlash compensation though which would be cheaper than GRBL and ball screws
But I dunno...
