I am in the process of ordering bearings now
ordering brass bearings, quite pricy but the exact size i need for the older gearbox, currently trying to spec bearings for the other one due to the thicker shaft... replacing the gears and motors sounds great as i have noticed a high spot in one of the transfer gears. The motors especially need replacing with something from japan servo, hopefully i come across one in the correct wiring config
It sure would be good with some of these 0.6deg steppers i have though
Anyway aside from the bearings i think i have the backlash sorted, i had some mylar spacer sheets with a thickness of 0.05mm. I adjusted the backlash while feeding it through and its finally given me a perfect adjustment each time and the gear mesh is spot on
