Description
Sherline CNC Linear Controller w/ 15″ Leadscrew (")
Offers precise stepper motor control
Supports daisy chaining for complex tasks
Programs 40 operations per sequence
Enhances gear cutting with rotary integration
Ensures consistent feed rate for smooth finish
The Sherline CNC Linear Controller w/ 15″ Leadscrew (") is an advanced device designed for machines that are not CNC-Ready, providing precise control over stepper motors. This stand-alone controller is equipped with a programmable keypad, allowing users to manage the stepper motor's functions effectively. It is particularly suitable for driving the leadscrew of a Sherline lathe, offering a seamless integration for enhanced machine operations. The controller supports connectivity through an 8-pin mini-DIN cable, enabling multiple units to be linked in a 'daisy chain' configuration. This feature allows the units to communicate and operate in sequence, facilitating complex movements without the need for a computer or a master CNC controller. Additionally, it can be used alongside existing CNC controllers for expanded functionality.
The controller is user-friendly, allowing programming of two separate sequences, each comprising up to 40 operations. Users can control various parameters such as distance, direction, speed, and program flow, making it versatile for different machining tasks. The ability to 'daisy-chain' with Sherline’s rotary controller further enhances its capability, enabling combinations of rotary and linear movements for sophisticated operations like gear cutting. This setup simplifies the process, requiring minimal CNC programming knowledge.
Utilizing a power feed with this controller offers significant advantages, including a consistent feed rate that ensures a smoother and more uniform finish. It minimizes errors associated with manual handwheel operation and eliminates the physical effort required for lengthy cuts or returning the saddle to its starting position. Programming is straightforward, and operations can be repeated with precision at the touch of a button, ensuring high accuracy in machining tasks.
Note: Ensure proper installation and use according to the provided instructions to avoid operational hazards.
