ABSTRACT:
A multiple purpose CNC machine that is mountable on a framed, mobile dolly. The machine includes: an open frame base Y-axis (200), a gantry X-axis (300), and a double angle plate (400) that provides mounting surfaces for tooling/instruments such as a Z axis module (500). The double angle plate also allows for mounting of a second Z axis module on the opposite face. The modular Z axis module includes a horizontally rigid counterweight assembly. The counterweight assembly facilitates the adding/subtracting of counterbalancing weights. The Y axis base includes provisions for placement of a tooling plate that is secured on precision machined pads of the Y axis base. The pads also include reference dowel pins. The CNC machine is multiple purpose and can be configured with a high-speed spindle or other material-removing tools, can be used with tooling such as in robotic applications, or can be used with a camera system such as for inspection tasks. The CNC machine can be configured with positioning control motors of either a closed loop servo system or an open loop stepper/linear motor system.
