As mentioned in my new member introduction post I am about to replace my Sorotec CL0805 router with a DIY build, custom fit to my needs.
Not that I really have to. The CL0805 is after the modifications I have already done in the meantime a decent router and I was able to mill all the aluminum and even the steel parts, which I needed for my UHPC router build on it.
It is just a personal issue, that I do not want to have a Sorotec product in my basement anymore. 🤔
I want to use my UHPC router strictly for metal and plastics. So the new router will be used for all sorts of CNC woodwork.
My first idea was to incorporate an automatically height adjustable dust shoe (Marius Hornberger style). But that design would have consumed too much Y-travel. Therefore, I currently plan to use a conventional system...
(btw. I am loading/unloading work pieces from the side, that's why the bed axis is X and the gantry axis Y in my world...)
There are some limitations that the design of the new router needs to respect and the most important one is the available space.
It has to fit into the same enclosure where currently the Sorotec sits in.
I would have preferred a little bit more travel in Y, but one other design aspect was to achieve a high degree in rigidity and stiffness. Also, peripherals like drag chains consume a certain amount of space as well...
Here are some key specs:
Milling area 900x500x150mm
Hiwin HGR20R rails on all axes
TBI DFU2005 ball screws on X and Y, DFU1605 on Z
400W JMC servo on X, 200W on Y, 180W with brake on Z
12m/min rapid movement
Total weight 180kg
