I have Gecko 340s on 3 of 4 axis and can do the same!
Matter of fact, before I put ball screws on, I was using the 1000 line encoders, but they only have a 5mm shaft (press fit) and I decided to go with somthing that was easier to install. That is why I got new ones and the method of installtion. I don't really need 0.00005" resolution! After all, this is a mill drill and not a production machine in a controlled environment. Right now, I am having problems on the X axis trying to hold .2" for some reason.
The repeatiblility sucks. I tried to mill a part today and the axis would not hold a repeatibilty of .200"! I think I may have a noise problem and will work on that this week. |
