Boss men are looking at a really nice plasma, and a few knock off brand lasers.
The plasma and lasers both run on semi exposed rack and pinion, servo thru gear head, encoder on servo, not on rack. The plasma, controlled automation - yasakwa servos has positional accuracy spec of .015 - .01 repeatedly. Lasers all unknown controllers ( guessing skinned Mach from screen shots and cabinet builds) running unknown servos state .003 inch positional accuracy, .001 repeatability.
Is this possible with exposed rack? 20 foot bed, so thermal and floor shift would be way more anyway- but even ideal I can not see rack drive giving that accuracy. Am I missing something or is it sales pitch numbers no one will check?
