ok rich I will write again in one post.
My machine is SX3 is completely modified with THK SRS15 Linear Motion , ball screw 16mm pinch 5 , zero backlash coupler coupling , spindle bearing NSK ABEC 7 higest precision .
step pulse lined up, I cut out all the time the same part size 40mm x 40mm and hole in the middle for the Bearing 30mm
turned out of the 5 is most similar to the dimensions I turned out the same rates of speed no more like 450mm/m if I changed these 2 setup , the machine even more errors
I wrote about the spindle only because end mill is 60mm long , if it is more than 25 mm on the outside form the spindle , on the same setup 5 for step-pulse and speed 450 mm / m My part was was bigger , other dimensions it means the end mill bends to side ,I have a backlash on the spindle 0.01mm
the problem is not with the backlash on the spindle , the problem is with the end mill
My pc is dell
I do not know if you think about it on-board graphics (intel 82865G)
I have a mach 3 is R2.58
SOFTWARE RHINO 4.0 AND RHINO2.0
I checked yesterday backlash on the ballscrew on Y axis is 0.01mm and on X 0.017mm
cnc driver is gecko540
STEPPERS MOTOR on 3 axis
Step Angle: 1.8 +/- 5% / Step
Voltage: 4.2 V
Current: 3.5A/Phase
Resistance: 1.2 +/- 10% Ohms/Phase
Inductance: 6.4 +/- 20% mH/Phase
Holding Torque: 440 N.cm or 620 oz/in.

I changed everything to fix my machine precision Y and X axis I can move with one finger. This gave me a better precision
