    metric t-slot

    Hi

    Please teach me a CNC plan using metric aluminum t-slot. For example Misumi's 4080(mm) or 3060(mm) etc.

    As for the cut area size, I wish it is bigger than 450mm x 900mm.

    The fla100-00 is an ideal plan. But it's a design of an inch size, so it is difficult
    to buid it in metric.

    It is very difficult for me to get 8020's 1530series t-slot.

    Use the same plan, substitute metric parts for inch parts. Seems straight forward.

    Distance of a slot and a slot

    1530(inch)=38.1mm x 76.2mm

    4080(mm)=40mm x 80mm

    thanks, matt

    Since the distance of a slot and a slot is different about 2 mm, it seems to be difficult to build straight.
    Only a frame could be constructed.
    However, I think that the various mount parts in which the screw hole is opened does not suit.
    I am glad if 1530 and 4080 are the same sizes in fact.
