Sorotec Hobby-Line 7545 Parts set

With scratch-resistant blue anodized portal cheeks

Selecting the control

The Hobby-Line offered in the configurator is an offer without control unit, control software and licences. You can find a selection of supported control units and control software in our webshop.

The series of our Hobby-Line was specially developed for beginners and hobby users of CNC technology. Already at the construction great value was placed on a simple assembly of the kit without special tools. So even beginners should have the opportunity to come with comparatively little previous knowledge at reasonable cost to a reliable and accurate machine in the usual stable Sorotec quality. The configurator should also support this, in order to find a meaningful compilation of all necessary components from the beginning, and to avoid expensive wrong decisions.

The mechanic is available in four different sizes, so every needings should meet something suitable. By use of the  specially designed (and manufactured exclusively for Sorotec) solid aluminum extruded profile, a very high rigidity of the CNC-controlled machine is achieved. The hardened steel shafts in the aluminum profile and the recirculating ball screws on all axles allow a virtually wear-free and gentle operation. The generously dimensioned stepper motors can easily cope with any task that arises. The integrated 43 mm holder allows you to choose from the wide range of milling motors with 43 mm clamping neck. In addition, HF spindles can also be bolted directly to the grooved Z-axis profile. The drag chains and reference switches are included also.

The scratch-resistant blue anodized portal cheeks and the front plates are provided with form-fitting cutouts that enable precise alignment during assembly. All CNC machined parts are made from milled, machined aluminum (5083) with high accuracy of fit.
The ball-bearing guides in conjunction with the inserted steel shafts in the profiles enable a wear-free and smooth running of the portal milling machine. By the eccentric screws a simple adjustment of the mechanical preload is possible.

Optionally, workpiece supports such as e.g. T-slot plates, vacuum tables or MDF plates with thread grid are available.
A stepper motor set with sufficient dimensioning is listed in the configurator.
A tool length sensor greatly simplifies the setup of the workpiece.

The shown stepper motors, the installed T-slot plate and the milling spindle in the photos are available as options and are only included in the delivery if they have been selected in the configurator.

The mechanics is supplied in individual parts for self-assembly. The pictures show the fully assembled state. After completion, the sets of parts presented here represent what is referred to as "incomplete machines" in the Machinery Directive. For operation in accordance with the regulations, it must be completed with an enclosure and the module functional safety (operator protection). Also read this Information sheet
