Yes, I was being funny. but, some people HAVE asked about putting ENORMOUS
motors on the axis drives for a benchtop mill. I can't imagine what
this guy wants
to servo control with 23 KW motors! Yikes, 25 HP, 440 In-Lb.! These
things must
weigh 50 Lbs, maybe even a couple hundred Lbs each! And, he doesn't say
what
he wants to move with it!
