The Sherline Metric Lathe Leadscrew Backlash Lock Upgrade is an innovative modification designed to address the critical issue of backlash in CNC operations. This upgrade allows for adjustable control over the leadscrew backlash, enabling a reduction to as little as .001 inches. The installation process is straightforward, requiring no additional holes, and involves replacing the saddle nut securing screw with a longer one that passes through a hole in the locking plate.
This system enhances the functionality of both manual and CNC machines, making it a valuable addition even if the saddle nut is not worn out. The locking lever and securing arm provide the flexibility to secure the leadscrew in locked, unlocked, or any intermediate position, thereby offering precise control over backlash. The upgrade includes a new lock plate that attaches to the saddle with a longer bolt, and the lever arm is secured in place using a socket head cap screw.
Note: Ensure proper installation to maintain machine safety and performance.
