Specifications and Design Rationale
+1
Cube Shaped, Structural Steel Angle Frame
- Ease of maintenance; frame can lie on any of its 6 faces for multiple access points.
- Rigidity; 8 corner junctions.
- Scalable
- Stackable; facilitates storage and transportation
- Full Planar Containment; inner components protected by cubeframe from any planar impact
- Ease of Disassembly; 3 fasteners per corner junction; each edge angle of cubeframe independently open for disassembly
- Interchangeability of angles throughout cubeframe
- Ease of sourcing/availability
Bronze Sleeve Bearing With Flange
- Bronze for low friction
- Flange so that the bearing needs be secured only from one side
- Flange so that the bearing is self-aligning during mounting process (flange automatically becomes parallel to mount surface)
- Mounted with bolts and nuts external of flange for easy interchangeability of bearings through machine and for other applications (because no mount holes are drilled on the bearing itself)
All Screw or Bolt+Nut Fastening
- Superior ease of disassembly
=All Stock Metal Frame
- Superior ease of sourcing
Aluminum Axis Angles (2 support and 2 moving per axis)
- Lightweight yet rigid
- 2 support for holding stability on both ends of axis
- 2 moving for stability along plane perpendicular to moving angle
Aluminum Set-Screw Couplings
- Ease of Fabrication
- Ease of Disassembly
- Lightweight
Ball Bearing (2 for spindle)
- Handles high rpm
- Flange so that the bearing needs be secured only from one side
- Flange so that the bearing is self-aligning during mounting process (flange automatically becomes parallel to mount surface)
- Mounted with bolts and nuts external of flange for easy interchangeability of bearings through machine and for other applications (because no mount holes are drilled on the bearing itself)
- 2 for stability along all planes
Stainless Steel Leadscrew
- Excellent corrosion resistance
Wear-compensating Leadscrew Nut
- Long lifetime
Precision Stainless Steel Support Shafts, 2 per axis
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Stability along plane perpendicular to axis
