Hi people
I am in the process of finishing up the machining all the parts for my cnc router. Basics of mine are as follows:
Frame: 8020-3060 extrusions (3"x6")
20mm Linear Rails
X Axis 1605 1200mm Ball Screws, one screw on each side
Y Axis 1605 1000mm Ball Screw
Z Axis 1605 300mm Ball Screw
Nema 23 Steppers
Z axis is a nema 23 with a 10:1 reduction
2.2 kW Chinese liquid cooled 3-phase spindle
Warp 9 Ethernet SmoothStepper Control and BreakoutBoard
Questions I have:
1. Has anyone gotten a Mach 4 post processor for Solidworks Camworks yet? I have the full 3 axis pro version in Solidworks for my Haas and would like to stay with it. If not is the Mach 3 Post any good?
2 Where did you put your home switch?
