@deckingman said in Lead screw pitch any thoughts?:
@Corexy 2mm lead is fine for Z. I actually use 1mn lead screws (single motor, no gearing, 400x400x10 bed). What lead are they supplying? You don't need anti backlash nuts on Z because gravity takes care of backlash. If they are the adjustable type, then you can use them but back off the adjustment because otherwise you are just creating additional friction.
This thread seems to have veared away from the OPs question which was related to using screw driven X and Y and which have completely different speed and backlash requirements.
Yes I did veer off there, my apologies.
I'll start a new thread about my specific lead screw application when my kit arrives.
