Removing Z ballscrew
Posted: Thu 21 Sep , 2023 19:27 pm
Hey all,
I'm doing a controls retrofit on a Novaturn and need to modify the Main motor mounting plate. This apparently has the Z ballscrew attached to it so I need to disassemble the screw. There appears to be a slotted lock nut to remove but it's not very accessible. Is there a special tool for this locknut, or at the very least some dimensions somewhere if I have to make a tool?
Thanks!
Chris
