Title: Retrofitted Emco-clone mill
Post by: Hans V. on February 01, 2009, 05:38:28 AM

Greetings,

Just wanted to share some pictures of my retro-fitted mill, which is an Emco clone.
It previously had a round tubular Z-axis, a picture is shown of this.
This is replaced with a square tube equipped with some lineair guidance, works better for cnc

Now working on the cabinet with Gecko drives and PMDX boards.
Still to do are glass encoders.

Kind regards,
Hans
