It has three cast iron axis beds, 700mm x 250mm and 115kg each, with 32mm C5 ground doublenut THK ballscrews and THK HSR linear rails and cars.
The frame is two L shaped pieces of med-tensile 32mm steel plate. Total weight 850kg.
Travels 358mm x 358mm x 358mm, max traverse 25m/min, max cutting speed 15m/min, accels 0.25g all axes.
It's in use but still working on details like way covers and sealing up cabinet against coolant leaks.
