Mill Power feed unboxing and installation X-axis

[@seanbaumer6039]

This video actually helped me understand how the bridgeport style powerfeed worked. Excellent

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thanks for your kind words.

[@nbrewno]

Great find on the speed adjustment knob moving with the direction lever. Good observation skills and great video.,

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thank you for watching!

[@6milesup]

Good video! Thank you for putting it together. "I hope I paid enough to see some action down the road". LOL. That's what I told my wife...;)

[@TinkeringNerd]

Good point, lol :)

[@kentdixon5716]

Really enjoyed your video, am thinking of getting a mill/drill and wondered how much work to install power feed, Now I know, very good explanation and filming, good sense of humor as well ha ha. Thanks for posting.

[@TinkeringNerd]

I appreciate you watching! Cheers.

[@SunSetAutomacao]

Thank you for posting this video, well explained, quiet and calm to talk. parabens. I have a faulty power feed it doesn't move to the left side, maybe you can help me. Where can I find the electrical schematic for the power feed. Nilson I'm from Brazil South America. Thanks.

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thank you. I don’t have the schematics for this unit and I don’t know where to find it, sorry. It sounds you may have a bad switch to go to one side. That would be first thing I check. Cheers.

Very helpful. I am installing an ALIGN to my X axis, its almost the same as your ALSGS. The instructions are pretty poor, thank goodness for KZbin Vids like yours.

Thank you for watching

[@ronmenzies362]

Hi great video thanks, what do you mean about the drive bevel gear not being supported

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thank you. This unit has the bevel gear shaft “up in the air” without another bearing at the top of the gear.

[@ronmenzies362]

@@TinkeringNerdis the bevel gear slide on to the shaft that it turns with the keyway, where else can it be supported

[@TinkeringNerd]

@ronmenzies362 it is supported at top of the shaft in better made feeders.

[@noisytim]

Thanks for making this video. I will be converting an engraver to a milling machine soon. Your videos are a great help and inspiration or the planning!

[@TH-pg9hn]

Nice video, lot of help when install this kind device. Thinking to buy samekind chinese unit to my old milling machine. Thanks.

[@BIGDADDY012341]

Great video !! Thanks for posting !

[@chrisfournier6144]

Very well made video and careful installation. Your humour even made this entertaining! Well done Nerd! I just took a closer look at my Chinese clone unit to see if the drive bevel gear was not indeed supported on both sides. Mine is but a bright light and a feeler was needed to confirm this. Perhaps yours is too?

[@jasoncox6245]

Looking at getting one of these for our mill, but cant find the speed settings; do you know how fast each number makes it go(As in, #1 is 10 inches per minute, etc?) Thanks!

[@TinkeringNerd]

The speed is not regulated and varies with load on the table. Digits on the dial scale are arbitrary. So, it’s impossible to guess the actual speed at any given moment. It’s all based on how it feels/sounds. Cheers.

[@klasjonsson6325]

Hi. Very nice video. i have a STOREBRO Combi mill that has a x axis power feed origional but it is broken beond repair. so i am thinking on buying the same as you. bur i supose it is for bridgeport mill. so i wonder do you know the measure on the pin bearing ? on my mill the pin bearing is 1 inch

[@gregvanzant8275]

Good information,Thank You

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thank you for watching!

[@lacaver64]

can I use this power feed for the x y z axis ?

[@silverlakepinckneymi]

can you please tell me the width of the bracket and the motor mounted together. looks like about 2". was going to try to mount it on my Harbor Freight Mill 40939. thanks for the video

[@mrjay2184]

Great job 👍🏾

[@rollerco]

Great to the point video.

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thank you!

[@Turb0esky]

Good video. Very helpful!

[@You-can-fix-it-yourself]

Good review. No fluff, just the important stuff. Will this unit work on the "Y" axis also?

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thank you. For Y axis, you will need different mounting bracket, and the lever would be sideways. I think there are specific ones sold for Y axis.

[@You-can-fix-it-yourself]

@@TinkeringNerd O.K., thanks for the reply. Keep making videos.

[@evanpatton2030]

Good video. Learned a lot!

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thanks a lot!!!

[@douglasthompson2740]

Could that power feed be installed on the knee? With some adaptation I am thinking? Interesting videos. Take care. Doug

[@TinkeringNerd]

Not sure if it got enough torque to move the knee knob. But, I’m sure it could be installed. Cheers.

[@junkmannoparts9696]

IT is now 2121 how is you power feed working i am installing one my self .

[@TinkeringNerd]

It’s working as new, I haven’t used it much.

[@PettyMower]

I'm curious, would leadscrew backlash effect the distance between the pinion and bevel gears? Thank you!

[@TinkeringNerd]

Backlash is originating between the screw and the lead nut. There is no play between the screw and the table. So, no, bevel gear is not affected by the backlash. Cheers.

[@PettyMower]

@@TinkeringNerd Thank you!

[@taylor4386]

Nice informative video. 😀

[@InfiniteCraftsman]

Glad I saw this. Solid observations.

[@paulriley5940]

What mill did you install the power feed on?

[@TinkeringNerd]

It’s made in China with Taiwanese lead screws. It doesn’t really have a name.. just some model number. It’s 50x10 table vertical mill with square waves on y and z axis’. There is some more about it in my video about how I moved it and how I repaired it.

[@rakshithgowda7665]

It was fentastic I liked it and I subscribed your channel

[@guadalupechavez5305]

What's the brand on the power feed?

[@TinkeringNerd]

If I’m not mistaken, it’s ALSGS. Cheers

[@alphonsefrascato3342]

The kit you installed is it a universal kit or for a certain brand of mill?

[@TinkeringNerd]

Most vertical mills out there are standardized as Bridgeport brand mills. The power feed should work on most any vertical mill. You could ask your seller if their power feed will work on your mill, to be somewhat certain. Cheers.

[@yellowsupra88]

Great video thanks.

[@TinkeringNerd]

Thank you for watching!

[@44Celt]

What torque rating is this model and how does it cope with general milling?

[@TinkeringNerd]

This model 310SX is rated for 450 lb-in. It works for me just fine.

[@joeygonzo]

Is this power feed still working for you? I'm looking for one for my Clausing mill.

[@TinkeringNerd]

I barely use it, but, when I do, it works fine.

[@TinkeringNerd]

I think it’s a good deal for the price :)

[@arialee4700]

hi Jack, did you buy power feed already?

[@joeygonzo]

@@arialee4700 No. Still thinking.

[@tonymcdaniel9198]

How do you

[@75Bird455]

How does it perform while milling?

[@TinkeringNerd]

So far, I only ran it on light passes on aluminum. It works fine. Thanks for watching.

[@75Bird455]

Tinkering Nerd thanks for posting the video! I'll probably be picking one up soon.
