1. Spindle rotates at 24,000 RPM and is attached to a carriage moved along a 3/8 -12 lead
screw. Carriage should move linearly at 0.30 in/sec.
a) How fast should the lead screw rotate to maintain and produce the linear speed?
2. What is the gearbox reduction ratio that best reduces the high efficiency speed of a motor
chosen to fit the operational speed of the lead screw from Part 1? What is the calculated
output torque from this gearbox?
3. The motor is added prior to the gearbox. If a 14 in slot must be milled using an
incremental rotary encoder with 200 pulses per rev, how many pulses should the motor
be commanded to move?
