Digital Readout
Model G0768Z features a magnetically mounted
DRO (see Figure 1) for X-axis (cross slide) and
Z-axis (carriage) travel.
Note: When placing the DRO, locate all cables so
they do not interfere with machine operation and
cannot be pinched by moving components.
Figure 1. DRO magnetically mounted on lathe
headstock.
The X-axis and Z-axis scales are attached to
the cross slide and bed (respectively). Shielded
cables run from each sensor to plugs on the back
of the DRO (see Figure 2). The DRO connects
to a regular 110V power supply with a dedicated
power cord using a NEMA 1-15 plug.
