Electrode Spindle (W-Axis)

Assembly

Servo-driven head that rotates the hollow electrode tube at 100-1000 rpm and feeds it down the bore axis with sub-micron resolution as the hole erodes. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
