    2 Gecko G203V (1 A Axis 1 Z Axis ) 70v DC Power Supply.
    G540 For X Y and B slaved Axis 48v Power Supply.
    Any thoughts ?
    Cheers

    I guess it depends on how much of an "E" you want to deal with. If you crash an endmill into something, just killing the steppers might not be enough if the spindle is still munching away. To cope with that scenario, you really want to kill the mains supply to everything, which is pretty straightforward, provided the switch is mains rated.

    Thanks for the reply,
    You are probably right, keep it simple and just kill the power. I was probably overthinking it.
    Cheers
