Z axis Power feed mechanical parts Completed

In this part we start and complete the mechanical parts to motorise the Z Axis on my Warco WM16B mill. Lots of milling and turning in this one .

Greetings Ade I enjoyed this project very much. I would advise you to make a guard, because as a viewer I just want to see how elegant of a solution you would come up with. Anyhow, nice watch and cheers!

Ade

Would love to see you do quill powewrfeed on that mill. For boring would be more precise than than using the z-axis powerfeed

Hi Ade great video loved the series so far just an idea can’t you use a double bearing on a fixed shaft to the bearings at the back of the belt pushing forward on a adjusting slot to tension the belt this may also solve the belt rubbing issue thanks for sharing all the best stay safe

Really enjoy your down to earth channel. Are you planning on converting the machine to CNC

Just a thought Ade, could you just fit a roller and use it as an idler.

Gday Adrain, I like the idea of being able to use the power feed to do boring, great idea, any chance we could do a sticker swap?, Cheers Matty

Ade I am a very big fan of your channel, as a begginer that I am I learned a lot from you.
I like the Z axis motor drive. I have a Grizzly G0619 And would like to do mine the same way. Where and what size motor is it, and pruchased it from? Keep up the great work you do

Another great episode ade. Can i just as an unrelated question, did you have to make a plate up for your lathe milling attachment to sit on, so it covered the centre of the lathe more?

[dakidfrombrooklyn]

Where did you get the motor for the x axis feed, puppy and belt?

[jonsworkshop]

Well done Ade, how long before you have got Mach 4 connected (I can see where you are going with this)? Cheers, Jon

Hallo ade
Warum hast du den Schrittmotor nicht nach hinten verlegt und die Zahnriemenscheibe nach rechts mit der Riemenscheibe am Handrad ausgerichtet. Dann ist dir der Motor nicht im Weg und der Zahnriemen hat überall genug platz.
Ich habe jetzt bald alle deine Vidios gesehen leider ist mein Englisch schlecht.
Bleibt Gesund und schöne Grüße aus Deutschland. Harald
