Hardware · `Jigcenter-5G` · verification: source checked

The Jigcenter-5G is a vertical 3-axis jig borer built on a double column bridge type design with box ways, intended for milling and boring of tight-tolerance parts. It uses a 4-step geared #40 spindle running up to 20,000 min-1, a 50-station tool storage, and linear scale feedback on the X, Y and Z axes. Positioning accuracy is stated as ±0.001 mm over full stroke with repeatability of ±0.0005 mm.
