Hey all,
I am building my own cnc machine and have been looking for spindles for hourrss. Anyway I saw these set-ups to buy at littlemachineshop
Box Assembly
LittleMachineShop.com - Mini Mill Spindle Box Assembly R8
Head Assembly
LittleMachineShop.com - Mini Mill Head Assembly R8 Spindle
My question is with the box assembly can I attach my own motor to this? I'm looking for something like 2-3 hp, maybe 5? At around 2000rpm. I know this is meant for a small mill so I'm not sure if it can handle that power. Or the 0.47hp head assembly is good?
This is for cutting Aluminum primarily.
Also, if this should be in another thread please lead the way..there are a lot of topics for the forum list and this seems to be the closest.
Thanks,
Alex
