Warco super major mill

Hello all
thanks for the replies very helpful.
I'm waiting for a price from Gary for all mechanical and electrical bits.
I had a price from one guy but he is quoting 12nm motors?? Seems a little excessive to me??
Where i'm based in Scotland I want to do the small prototyping for a company for who I work in Manchester,
they have lots of CNC machines but but large batch production type and say they will machine the bits for me.
when I do the models of the components required.
Do you guys prefer to use the belt drive for the ballscrews rather than direct coupling?
Any chance you could email the autocad files might save me lots of work and would be much appreciated.
I think I will go down the rough and ready route first just to prove my designs.

Anyway thanks for your reply they are more than helpful.

Hmmm

12Nm onto a 5mm pitch screw would lift about 1.5 tons, slight overkill :heehee:

I can't attach to e-mails sent through mycnc, mail me [email protected] and include my name Robin Hewitt somewhere in the text, that will get you past a very enthusuastic spam filter.
