Hi ataxy
My understanding is the acem 5/8-10TPI would work just fine.
As for my Z axis.
I have a extra acem 5/8-10TPI x 22.5" that was bent on the ends.
Its From my ENCO Mill Table getting damaged in shipping.
Very happy seller had replacment parts.
So what im thinking is; do my Z axis some what like a Sherline mill has.
Meaning atach it to the Top end of Mill column Assembly with thrust type bearings. And on the Spindle Head Assembly have it treaded.
Sooo as the acem screw turns it moves the Spindle Head only.
Its acem would be supported on both ends with bearings.
Its hard to explain in words. I have a 5400 Deluxe Sherline.
"Used it for 7 years"
Thats how I got the idea, by looking at the X2 mill parts and the way Sherline made there Mill.
Say anyone know ho has the best prices on Stepper motors & Drivers?
Looking for a 4 axis Driver board. |
