Sherline PN 8730 Standard CNC Rotary Table with Stepper Motor

The 4th Axis for your Sherline CNC Mill

Included Parts:

• 1 Hold Down Set
• 1 37090 Chuck Adapter

Sherline’s CNC driver box comes equipped with an A-axis output cable ready to drive a 4th rotary axis. The 8730 rotary table is all you need to turn your Sherline CNC mill into a 4-axis machine. Just plug the A-axis cable from the external 8760 driver box into the matching plug on the stepper motor.  Both the Linux EMC and the Windows MACH3/MACH4 software can handle G-code for the A-axis in such way that and numbers entered after the letter “A” in your code are interpreted in degrees.

NOTE: We are stating the following weight limits for the rotary table for continual use. 

• Horizontal orientation—50 lbs.
• Vertical orientation—30 lbs.
• Vertical rotational torque—6 foot/lbs. (meaning it can lift a 6 lb. weight when suspended 12″ away from the center of the rotary table)

The rotary tables can hold more weight when they are not under a continual load.
