The Sherline Mill DRO w/ CNC Thrust Collars 8100 (") is an advanced digital readout system designed to enhance the precision and ease of use for machinists operating mills equipped with stepper motors. This system requires the removal of handwheels to install CNC stepper motor mounts on a Sherline machine. The digital readout system measures handwheel rotation and translates it electronically into table movement, providing a reliable method for cross-checking CNC input against actual axis movement. This feature is particularly beneficial for CNC users who wish to verify the accuracy of their machine's movements.
Digital readouts have become a staple in modern machining, offering significant convenience by allowing machinists to reset the X, Y, and Z axes to zero with the push of a button. This system provides precise readings to 3-1/2 decimal places in inches or to .01mm in metric, eliminating the need for counting handwheel revolutions or performing complex calculations. The kit includes handwheels with encoders for each axis, a digital readout box with an LCD display, an RPM sensor, a power supply, cables, a stand, and all necessary mounting hardware. Notably, the installation process requires no drilling, simplifying the setup.
The electronics package has been enhanced to include an RPM readout, adding further functionality without requiring modifications to the Sherline mill. The system is versatile, with options available for both lathe and mill applications. For users with both machines, the electronic readout box can be shared, offering a cost-effective solution by purchasing additional handwheels and cables for the second machine. The power supply is adaptable, automatically switching between 120V and 240V, accommodating various international electrical standards.
Note: Though not designed as a closed-loop feedback system for Sherline CNC machines, the DRO can be adapted for use as a separate readout on the rear shaft of Sherline stepper motors.
If you are not satisfied for whatever reason with a Product you bought on the Site, it is possible to return it for refund within 30 days from the date you received it unless otherwise indicated in the Product listing. You must first advise the Vendor associated with your order in your account to obtain a return authorization (‘’RA’’) number before returning a Product.
