Making use of some scrap materials to design and make a peculiar and unique gantry for the CNC machine. It performs better than expected!

The spindle motor in the video is a Jianken JGL-100mm 3.2kw 24000rpm BT30 ATC. It has ceramic bearings and thus far seems very nice. We chose a 4 pole one, which has somewhat more torque at lower rpm than the 2 pole, but requires an 800Hz VFD. We will do a whole video on this spindle in the future. You can find them here: [ Ссылка ] and if you do buy from them, message them and mention 'Flowering Elbow' - you should get a discount.
