Revision as of 10:26, 21 October 2010

Spindles are the business end of the router. They provide the rotational torque that does the work of cutting.

Major brands

Colombo, HSD, Kress, and Porter-Cable. We use primarily Colombo and HSD spindles. Kress and Porter-Cable spindles are basically just souped-up Dremels.

Replacement

Important factors for replacing a spindle are: HP, Voltage, Amperage, and RPMs found on the nameplate (see fig 2). As there may be multiple specs on a nameplate, a PICTURE is usually the best way to determine the right motor.

  • H24G10-ISO3032H ISO 30 Tool holder excepts ER32 Collets
  • H22X10-ESCAN Tech-Scan Laser Scanner
This Tech-Scan set includes:
  • Laser scanner
  • Mounting accessories
  • Scanner protection hood and software
  • Two lenses for different scan depth and resolution
  • Rhino lab license
  • Rhino plug in to convert point clouds to surfaces
This laser scanner can scan details down to the face of a coin and the software forms the ideal
package to do reverse engineering and surface generation. It is the perfect companion to a
stereo-lithography printer for a :complete system to do reverse engineering model making and prototyping.
  • Alternate digitizer: This is a manual contact digitizing arm system
Allows for the construction of 2D and 3D models by tracing the surface features of actual parts it can be used for tracing the 2D boundary of a part.
Package includes:
  • 3D digitizer and digitizing interface software for PC to collect data through AutoCAD, Mastercam and most CAD/CAM software packages.
  • H22X10-3DPROBE 3D Touch probe with data collection software
  • Touch probe mounts into spindle for data collection
  • User specifies XY range and X resolution, Y resolution.
  • Data output is in a number of standard formats.
  • H24P00-VAC2 Dust Collection Option
Dust collection systems make shops cleaner, safer, and extend the life of a machine.
  • H24P00-VAC2 Dust Collector System (With10', 4"OD Hose)
  • Air flow of 1300CFM
  • 10.3" static pressure
  • 1.5HP Single phase
  • 120 or 220VAC 6" outlet with 2 x 4" openings
