Introduction:

This is a 1.5 kilowatt spindle which roughly translates to 2.01 HP. The spindle is water cooled which requires a pump and tubing. We are using a 300 gal/hr pump that can be purchased from the home improvement store submerged in a bucket of water, but a chiller can also be used. Do not attempt to wire your VFD or spindle on your own. Consult with a professional electrician before following the diagram.

Description:

The spindle, by itself, weighs 8.66 lbs.The diameter of the spindle cylindrical body is 80mm, so when finding a mount, use an 80mm mount.

Collet Size for 1.5kW Spindle: ER11

Tramming the Router or Spindle (Making Sure it's Perpendicular to the Table)
Tramming the head (spindle or router) of a CNC router can be done with a simple old machinist trick using a long bar bent in a special way so that you can very accurately ensure the router or spindle is perpendicular to the bed (table) of the CNC machine.

Step 30: Router Mount Part 1
This tutorial is dated, if you are considering a CNC for your personal use, we would highly recommend purchasing a kit that is very stable from our wide range of machines available. The first of the videos for the router mount is finally edited and ready to post. The z-axis bearing supports were made in the current shape to be able to hold the router with a piece of stock in-between containing a hole for the router. This hole will need the ability to tighten against the router for stability and leveling. For my machine, I'm making one mount. This router mount will be positioned around the upper part of the router housing. Later, I will be installing a vacuum connection which will also serve as increased support for the router.
