new housing design with detachable distance pieces & base
Friday, April 18th, 2008in order to allow us to mill on larger objects than the CNC machine and housing we redesigned the construction and mount for the cnc machine. we can now detach the distance pieces from the base of the cnc machine and move the machine to larger objects (say a table top or a hood of a car) and mill on top of these
the material table underneath the distance pieces is a perforated plate, with a vacuum cleaner mounted underneath, giving us suction to clean off excess matarial
we’re getting the distance pieces milling in the workshop of DTU by professional craft men, since it is essential that the X/Y frame is parallel with the base / milling object
