hello guys,
Has anyone ever worked with the single axis robots from HIwin?

Im wondering if they are stiff enough. Im planning on using them to make a 20ft x 12" x6" milling machine... to machine long steel parts...
wondering if they are stiff enough for the 12 and 6 inch axes, to machine steel, even if i have to take 1/16" or 1/32" passes.

Best regards
Fernando

Fenando,
 20' or 2'?
What load can you place on them?

Hello Rich,
20 feet

planning on using normal rails and rack and pinion on that axis.

The single axis robots would be used in the 12inch and 6 inch axes.
I see they can take quite a load,
Its just that for the size and configuration of the unit, is hard to beleive that they can take that much
here is the loading table:
Best Regards
