Axis Feed Drives
AssemblyThe X, Y, and Z feed system using large ground ball screws on box ways, driven by servo motors with direct scale feedback. Heavier than a VMC drive train because horizontal machines take deeper, more aggressive cuts. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
