The stepper motor mounts supplied with these lathes and mills are the same mounts used on the industrial slides. They feature a dampened coupling and are. Shaft Coupling. Shaft couplings are actually the mechanical device that connects or couples the two drive element or shaft together for transmitting the power from one end to another. Couplings do not allow any shaft interruption during operation. Anyway, with the torque limiting couplings can disconnect when the limit of the torque is exceeded.
This has been my initial era CNC.
I acquired two goals when I constructed this:
- Inexpensive as feasible
- Worked
It had been inexpensive (fairly), and it worked (albeit not really as great as we wished). The issue with the CNC was it did not have enough lateral power on the Times- or Y-Axis. That designed it would not be too precise, I could not really repeat the same cut double, and the device was only good for drilling holes. So as I shift on to the following generation, I thought I'd talk about what I discovered this first go-around ás I déconstruct my first CNC (on my wife's kitchen area table).
MATERIALS (Keep in mind, I attempted to keep it cheap)
Things I bought:
- 3-Axis Package from Probotix (functions like a champion, saving for another project)
- Cabinet Glides as Linear Side rails (2 for the X-Axis, 2 for the Y-Axis, 1 for the Z-Axis)
- Two 1/2' MDF handy-panels (2' back button 4' each)
- 1/4'-20 threaded rod for prospect screws
- 1/4'-20 coupling nuts
- little set anchoring screws (3)
- Hardwood Glue
Issues I got laying around:
- Dremel Rotary tool
- Anchoring screws; all forms and dimensions
- Scrap hardwood
- Angle Lightweight aluminum
Tools I used:
- little drill push
- table saw
- hands exercise
- screwdrivers
Permits get started with the déconstruction.
