Andy, this BP has a 30 taper spindle. It is actually quite big. I put a servo motor (really a DC motor with encoder that I added) on the knee, so the knee goes up and down easily, it is called "W" axis and it is very handy. The vertical envelope of this milling machine is quite big.
This machine itself, a knee mill, is much bigger than the usual bridgeport, it weighs at 5,000 lbs or something like that. Called Series II Interact 2. i On Fri, Mar 27, 2015 at 7:29 AM, andy pugh <[email protected]> wrote: > On 27 March 2015 at 12:19, Igor Chudov <[email protected]> wrote: > > While this 4th and 5th axis table is not as big as usual, it still might > be > > too big to fit on my table, but it is close. > > Does the BP have an R8 spindle?
