The Sherline 18-Inch NexGen Benchtop XYZ Base CNC Ready (Inch) is a versatile and robust milling platform designed for precision and adaptability in various machining tasks. 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 flexibility but also offers significant cost savings compared to purchasing a complete mill setup.
The NexGen Benchtop Mill XYZ base is engineered with an extra-rigid column base, ensuring stability and precision during operation. It features an 18-inch extended mill table and base, complemented by a 15-inch extended column bed, providing ample space for a wide range of milling applications. The travel dimensions of the mill are substantial, with X-axis travel at 13.65 inches, Y-axis at 11.0 inches, and Z-axis at 9.38 inches, allowing for extensive maneuverability and precision in machining tasks.
This CNC-ready base is equipped with stepper motor mounts on the X, Y, and Z axes, facilitating the installation of stepper motors for automated control. While stepper motors are not included, the design allows for the integration of dual-shaft stepper motors, enabling both CNC and manual control. The inclusion of three low-mass 1-5/8 inch handwheels provides additional manual control options when dual-shaft stepper motors are utilized, enhancing the versatility of the milling process.
The Sherline 18-Inch NexGen Benchtop XYZ Base CNC Ready is a popular choice in the industry for controlling movement in small production line processes. Its compatibility with computer control systems expands its potential for automation, making it an ideal choice for both small-scale production and intricate machining tasks. Note: Manual control is not possible on CNC-ready bases until a dual shaft stepper motor has been installed.
