well it is like the rostock but has extra constraint in the extra 3 tracks and arms maybe this is to increase the rigidity.
the standard rostock looks and feels really wiggly to anyone used to tool room machines. the drawings _suggest_ use of iron C channel, so I _guess_ rigidity is sought here. there really only 1 position for the lower truck based on _all_ the upper trucks. theres a lot of force on the joints to keep it rigid enough to mill metal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xSkt9Fa8iQ TomP tjtr33 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
