Taig CNC-ready mill fitted with DC servo motors

This Taig mill was fitted with DC servo motors, and was tested to 120 IPM rapid feedrates. It maintained a servo following error of only .005" even at this high travel rate. Following error at normal rates was no more than .0002".

Pico Systems is currently evaluating the price point at which we could make complete drive systems available as a bolt-on kit. The big items we still have to deal with are electromagnetic compatibility (FCC) and safety testing.

The drive box is 10.5 x 11 x 5" and weighs only 10 Lbs. The 1 KVA power supply box is 11 x 14 x 5" and weighs 40 Lbs.
