A 3D-printed “drive-by-wire” micro mill for your desktop
In the automotive industry, “drive-by-wire” means that a traditionally mechanical linkage, like a throttle cable, has been replaced by an electronic actuator. That can eliminate design constraints and even save money. SciFientist was able to apply those same drive-by-wire principles to this 3D-printed micro milling machine. Machine tools, including vertical mills, are usually either CNC, […]
