Sherline 12-Inch Deluxe Tabletop Mill XYZ Base CNC Ready (Metric)
Facilitates precision and adaptability
Offers significant cost savings
Equipped with laser engraved table
Supports manual and CNC control
Enhances automation capabilities
The Sherline 12-Inch Deluxe Tabletop Mill XYZ Base CNC Ready (Metric) is a versatile milling machine designed for precision and adaptability. This model is particularly advantageous for lathe owners, as it can be purchased without the headstock and motor/speed control, allowing for a quick and efficient transfer of these components from a lathe to the mill. This feature not only enhances the machine's utility but also offers significant cost savings compared to the standard mill configuration.
The CNC-ready 12-inch XYZ base is a key component of this milling machine, identical to the base used in the 5400-series mill. It is equipped with stepper motor mounts on the X, Y, and Z axes, facilitating the installation of stepper motors for enhanced automation and precision. The base and table are laser engraved, ensuring accuracy in operations. The travel dimensions for the axes are X=8.65 inches (220 mm), Y=5.0 inches (127 mm), and Z=6.25 inches (159 mm), providing ample range for various milling tasks.
This model is compatible with dual shaft stepper motors, which allow for both manual and CNC control. The inclusion of three low mass 1-5/8 inch handwheels enables manual operation when dual shaft stepper motors are installed, offering flexibility in control methods. The CNC-ready bases are popular in small production line processes, where the integration of computer control can significantly enhance automation capabilities.
Note: CNC-ready machines cannot be operated manually unless double-shaft stepper motors are installed.
