Sherline CNC-Ready Lathe Upgrade Kit - 4410 Lathe Z Axis, w/ Screw (Metric)

Description Sherline CNC-Ready Lathe Upgrade Kit - 4410 Lathe Z Axis, w/ Screw (Metric) Converts lathe to CNC-ready Includes stepper motor mounts Ensures precise hole placement Comes with comprehensive instructions Compatible with aftermarket CNC systems The Sherline CNC-Ready Lathe Upgrade Kit - 4410 Lathe Z Axis, w/ Screw (Metric) is designed to convert any existing Sherline lathe to a CNC-ready status. This conversion process involves the precise installation of stepper motor mounts, which requires drilling and tapping several holes. The kit provides drill blocks that are used to guide the drilling of new holes, ensuring accurate placement for the attachment of the stepper motor mounts. Once the holes are drilled and tapped, the new mount is securely installed. Additionally, the installation of a new leadscrew is necessary for the lathe's Z-axis. Comprehensive instructions are included to facilitate the conversion process. This upgrade kit is specifically tailored for the Z-axis of the 4410 lathe and includes essential components such as a stepper motor mount, stepper motor preload bearings, and a CNC coupling. The CNC-ready designation indicates that the machine is prepared for the attachment of stepper motors, which can then be controlled via a CNC system that the user must provide. For those unable to develop their own CNC system, there are several aftermarket suppliers that offer compatible stepper motors, drivers, and CNC software to complete the setup.
