a Wide Variety of applications
Do you need to put the axial feed unit on one end of the bar and the rotational drive on
the other? No problem... all you need to do is use the leadscrew block clamped or tack
welded to the work piece. In fact, just about any arrangement of components can be used
as long as you maintain rigidity by placing bearing supports as close as possible to the
holes to be bored. Need to align and multiple holes? Just use a long bar and weld a
bearing bracket at each hole for support or use optical alignment for easy & precise setup
over long distances. Modular components let you use the machine in a wide variety of
combinations.
