    Thanks for sharing your project.

    What are the details of the actuators and hardware used on your rig?

    Can you please add pictures and details of the build process.

    The hardware was purchased from a dealer in China and my work mainly focused on the installation of the alloy framework of the DOF. Recently I have updated it to 5DOF until the alpha version expired because a bug of registration program happens in the beta version, which I am asking yobuddy for helps.

    I appreciate that, but what motors and control hardware specifically is being used?

    A build thread normally covers details such as where and what hardware was purchased, any challenges encountered or novel solution found/used, along with the likes of pictures/video of the build process. Adding those would be of great benefit, as your finished rig looks awesome.

    The motors were 400W/750W ones purchased from www.smc.com.cn. The control hardware is not specified, which I can see from the panel that it was designed by SoftKitty.
