The z axis has about 50mm travel. Next, demonstrate wax cutting and PCB milling with this configuration, as well as measuring z-axis resolution and hysteresis. +### Mar 11, 2022. -<img src=./img/z-axis.jpg width=40%> -<img src=./img/xyz_machine.jpg width=40%><br><br> +Build frame for slightly smaller machine designed to mill in a 150x150x50 mm volume. -String up and measure z-axis alone. First horizontal, with fishing line as belt. Necessary to adjust bearing position to ease friction on z-travel. Once that feels good, the plot below is obtained, moving in increments of 32*(1/32) steps eight times forward, then reversing. Each full step is calculated, using the radius of the capstan, to be 0.31 mm. Hysteresis is about 0.05 mm. +<img src=./img/xyz_frame.jpg width=40%> -<img src=./img/z_mar08.svg width=75%><br>
