Our big lathe is FINALLY getting some much needed upgrades to make using it even better! We're fitting and installing a 5 meter magnetic digital read out scale, installing the coolant tank and fitting a new work light. First we start with the process of drilling and tapping all the holes for the new mounting brackets before the meticulous process of aligning and adjusting all of the brackets, rails and magnetic tape. We then use our milling machine to make some modifications to a bracket for the reader before getting it aligned and installed on the lathe. We also show plumbing in the coolant tank and mounting the new work light to the carriage before giving everything a test. These upgrades are definitely going to make using this big lathe that much better!
