2 Description of the device:
The Micromot 230/E is ideally suited to tasks
such as precision drilling, milling, grinding,
polishing, brushing, rust removal, engraving,
chasing and cutting and, as a compact,
lightweight but still powerful device, is the fi rst
choice for electronics technicians, model
builders,
precision
manufacturers, opticians and arts and crafts
professionals
and
construction. Complete fl exibility is assured
when it comes to selecting the material to be
machined, thanks to our familiar and extremely
broad range of varied operational tools.
Machining of metals, non-ferrous metals, glass,
wood, minerals, ceramics, stone and much
more no longer presents a problem!
A carefully balanced permanent magnet DC motor
with extremely smooth running characteristics
provides powerful torque in this respect and,
in conjunction with the sensitive electronic
control, ensures the correct speed for the tool
employed and the task in hand.
The ground spindle with the collet holder is
mounted on precision ball bearings for
maximum precision, durability and smooth
running.
Superior-quality, three-jawed collet chucks are
used for tool holding. This enables the reliable
and absolutely centric clamping of even smaller
shafts, fulfi lling the optimum prerequisites for
fi rst-class concentricity and clean working
results!
