Sieg X2d Mini Mill Cnc Conversion Youtube There are numerous cnc conversion videos out there so if you are looking for a how two, click a different video, otherwise sit back and enjoy my mistakes.soo. This video contains step by step images of the cnc fusion x2 kit installation. i've highlighted the steps that will prevent binding, especially on the y axis.
Sieg X2 Mini Mill Stepper Motor Connection Kit For Cnc Conversion So the torsion spring that holds the head on the sieg x2d sucks. it doesn't hold the head in position and can make feeding the z axis very jumpy when milling. The sieg x2d cnc conversion kit is one of our best selling products, thanks to its easy to follow instructions and intuitive diy features. also, in terms of pricing, our sieg x2d packages offer a cost effective solution for cnc conversion. sieg x2d conversion kit includes: (3) nema 23 stepper motor adaptors (3) 16mm ball screw and nut assemblies. Some components on the original mill (like the handwheels on the x and y axis, and the z axis feed) were unnecessary, so i pulled them off. this opened up some space for my linear components and motors on the mill, but i wanted more. traditional x2 cnc conversions put the z axis ballscrew to the side of the back column, which is not ideal. Using the two 5mm screws from the fine feed mechanism, secure the z axis ball nut block to the side of the mill’s head. the top part of the z axis lock will be sticking up in the air at this point. use the large 12mm screw that came with the kit to secure the ball nut block from inside the spindle head. just snug all screws up at this point.

Improve the spindle. there are three issues with the stock spindle configuration on the mini mill. first and foremost, sieg uses low quality radial bearings which aren't appropriate for this application since they can only withstand radial forces. second, drive gears in the x2 header are plastic and besides being rather noisy, are prone to damage. Our cnc conversion plans' design allows you to retrofit your sieg built mini mill (harbor freight 44991, grizzly g8689, micro mark 82573, homier 3947, cummins 7877) to cnc operation while retaining manual operation. you can switch between manual and cnc without changing hardware. maintain manual use! no switching hardware needed.
