Tom, have you already given the group a good description of your
application? I used to work as a manufacturing engineer for these sorts of
projects. And there's many other brilliant minds on the NG.
Forgive if you've already done this and I missed it.

Gunner knows I do a lot of X-Y table stuff...now I see the link, I had to
cut/paste as it wasn't active. The typical commercial offerings are too slow, a
typical 1/4" move must go in 100-150 ms.

I remember a staking operation where we used linear motors for positioning.
They should easily achieve the speed you need. I searched a bit for a short
primer on the subject:
http://www.compumotor.com/whitepages/linearmotorarticle.pdf
Compumotor was the vendor for this project, IIRC. They would be a good
choice for an industrial automation application. If you're adventurous, I've
seen compumotor stuff go for a tiny fraction of new on eBay.
