Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Power Supply for Gecko 320 and servo motors for 3 axis router

Thanks for the replies guys. My initial setup playing with single axis
were using a 24V 500W supply with the same 75,000uF cap. This appeared
to work OK. I found 2 48V supplies on Ebay and got a rack with it so I
have 800W at 48V, in a nice package. This is for the mill I'm
assembling, which has 3 5.5A servo motors.
