I built an X-Y Table once where chain-drive was used to connect the MOTOR to
the X-screws, and the #35 chain gave out the first month! Connect the motor
directly to the end of the screw, using a proper shaft-coupler that permits
SOME a-axial or antiparallel human-frailty.
Jan,
i am going to use chain instead of leadscrew or rack and pinion. most likely in conjunction with cable to reduce inerta loads
