If by check, you mean read the inspection report - then yes. Otherwise, no. It is claiming to be trammed to 0.040mm in both X and Y. I'm not going to try to change the Y, I don't fancy shimming that out really. Obviously in X its pretty easy with the swivelling head. I can't remember any of the other values, but they did list table flatness, parallelism of T-slots to the X travel direction, and squareness of X to Y axis motion. All of those values were smaller than the 0.040 tram values, I remember that much.
With a 1 ton capacity engine crane we managed to lift it onto the stand after shortening the hook chain to gain some height. I'm not going to say it was easy, because it wasn't. It wouldn't be too bad with 3 people, we did it with 2 and it would not be possible on your own. I don't have much experience working with very heavy stuff but my friend helping me has, this was a great help. He's always lifting engines out of cars and he didn't find it too bad. |
