The Avid CNC Rotary Axis adds rotary cutting and indexing capabilities to PRO CNC and Benchtop CNC machines.
Featured:
Avid CNC Rotary Axis, 1550
61" (1250mm) frame length
Features & Benefits:
• Provides both the holding torque required for indexing operations, as well as the speeds sufficient for true rotary milling operations in a production environment.
• Self-contained within a rigid, all-metal framework to maintain precision alignment between the chuck and tailstock when changing workpieces, regardless of size, even when the entire axis is removed and reinstalled onto your CNC machine.
• Integrated precision linear rails allow for quick and easy setup for different workpiece sizes, while maintaining the precision alignment of the axis.
• Software-guided alignment that is fully integrated with our Auto-Z and Corner Finding Touch Plate.
• Integrated Pepperl + Fuchs inductive proximity sensor provides auto homing and workpiece alignment capabilities.
• Easy step-by-step assembly and calibration instructions
• Proudly designed and supported in the USA
Specs:
• 5” (130mm) 4 jaw chuck
• Morse Taper (MT) 2 tailstock with included live center
• Nema 34 stepper motor (N23 system compatible via provided motor adapter cable)[1]
• 10:1 Reduction
Stall torque:
• 24 ft-lbs with Plug and Play NEMA 34 CNC Control System
• 20 ft-lbs with Plug and Play NEMA 23 CNC Control System
• Maximum RPM: 100
• Backlash: 3 arcmin
• Sensor Cable Length: 20'
What's Included:
• 4 Jaw self-centering chuck, inside and outside jaws included
• Planetary gear reducer
• Adjustable tailstock, live center included
• Profile Linear Guide Rails and Bearings
• Low inductance Nema 34 stepper motor and cable (see product options below)
• Pepperl and Fuchs inductive homing sensor and sensor cable
• Aluminum frame, cut to length, drilled, counterbored, and tapped for easy assembly
• All required fasteners and gussets for mounting to your CNC machine (see product options below)
The Avid CNC Rotary Axis is designed to be highly versatile and accommodate many different workpiece sizes, while maintaining traditional routing work areas.
It can be mounted to an existing machine parallel with the X or Y axis, or can be recessed into the machine frame to maximize workpiece diameter. Mounting parallel to the Y axis (perpendicular to the machine gantry) maximizes workpiece length, while mounting parallel to the X axis preserves greater traditional routing work area. Recessed mounting can only be achieved parallel to the X axis of the machine.
PRO Series CNC machine mounting options:
• Table top, parallel or X or Y axis
• Recessed, parallel to X axis - Наука та технологія
It’s nice to hear the Marble Machine song as your background! I’m impressed by the company’s support in the Wintergatan MMX project, and when it’s time for me to purchase, I’ll look to Avid CNC.
immediately what i picked up on as well
Love it, Wintergarten.
Oh, this gives me sooooo many ideas for rotary and indexed projects. I know what I want for Christmas! ;-)
When will you adapt this to the plasma table for cutting round and square tubing?
In this video, the rotary axis is placed at the back of the machine. This is also what I am planning to do. Besides, perhaps not having as good a view of the spindle as it is working, are there any other problems with this approach?
Hopefully a tool changer is next!
I would love to see a tool changer as well. :)
;)
Cnc depot already sells a spindle with atc model S30 for avid cnc routers. There are videos on youtube about it. www.cncdepot.net/product-page/s30 Avid should collaborate with them and provide a complete package.
Going to wait and see. I would rather get a package from the same vendor. Avid stands behind their stuff so well.
@@Z-add agreed..i have a friend with 2 of the s30s and the tool changer...insane set up
Where it's the post processor and is it for both aspire and fusion? I've already converted the older one that's still displayed on HSM to inverse time, but I'd like to look over some things to verify mine more. Also, I'm using Mach 3 still and I'd love to get a tool change macro working. Right now I do calculations each time and I've needed up enough to want a macro.
Nice job on the 4th!
We have a post processor for Fusion as well as Vcarve & Aspire! www.cncrouterparts.com/support/software/downloads/fusion/
i love the wintergatan marblemashine musik and of corse the rotory axis
Maximum diameter?
It really depends on your machine, type of rotary you get and how you have it mounted. Fortunately we have a guide to help you figure it all out here: www.avidcnc.com/avid-cnc-rotary-axis-p-724.html You can also contact our customer support anytime and they can answer specific questions for you.
I got sad when the video ended :'(
It's oddly REALLY expensive.
Что за мужики такие, что "помогая" женщине переносить тяжести, выбирают сторону в разы легче...
Позорище.
$2.5k for some aluminium extrusion, some aluminium plate,nema34 motor/drive and small chuck and center. You lot are out of your mind! I can build this in a single day. You can get a nema 34 and driver for $100 + 2 rails and blocks $80, 3 jaw chuck $150, extrusion $100 , lathe center $100, lets add $200 for bearings, aluminium and probes. That's $730 total. This is also non commercial prices and should be lower for you lot. So you guys are making minimum $1770 profit? Don't you think this is a bit excessive? Price gouging? You guys must think people are pretty stupid?
We always appreciate the DIY spirit, and if you can achieve results that you are happy with for your application with the solution you describe, you should!
While there are many products similar in appearance out there, there is a wide range in quality and precision of the components you mention. Our solution definitely consists of higher-end versions of these, as well as several other key components that are not included in the list above, most notably the extremely low-backlash planetary reducer at its core, which provides the precision and holding torque for use as a true 4th axis, while still providing higher speed rotary turning capabilities (lower-end products are simply not suited to both applications). The built-in hardware and software tools that we provide to support calibration and tuning of the axis are also not something found in less complete solutions, all of which is key to our rotary axis providing performance, precision, repeatability, and overall results that are in-line with what customers expect from our CNC machines.
@@AvidCNC Sorry even if you go for some of the TOP of the line RULAND bellows couplings at $150 a pop it still doesn't even come close to your pricing. Oh just so you know using the "software" angle doesn't work as I have been a software engineer for many years coding in c/c++ and holding a masters in computer science. The "few" lines of code you are referring to can easily be found in multiple examples on stackoverflow. Don't take people for a ride.
@@kazykamakaze131 Just clarifying - we are not referring to a coupling, but a 10:1 hub-style planetary gear reducer. This low-backlash (< 3 arcmin) reducer is at the core of our rotary offering and enables both high holding stiffness and sufficient speed for efficient material removal. We do not use a belt reduction like you see on lower-performance rotary systems.
@@AvidCNC Nearly all cheap drills have planetary gear reducers in them, so it's nothing special. These are extremely cheap to get and just as cheap to make using a cnc mill for low torque holds at the size of a nema 34 motor. You aren't making your case any better. You don't even need a planetary gear reducer. If holding torque is an issue just go to a larger hybrid stepper motor, problem solved, cheaper, easier and less moving parts thus more reliable. Since you have a planetary there(i priced dual axial angular contact bearings) instead of high quality axial angular contact bearings, this would actually reduce the cost as really high quality bearings(that fit in metalworking lathes) are sometimes more expensive than a gearbox.
