You can calculate the scale size required by looking up or measuring your machine's cross, longitudinal or vertical traverse, depending on what you want to measure. Then select a corresponding scale size.
We generally round up where we don't have an exact match, in order to measure the full length of travel.
Using the WM16 as an example:
Equivalent scenarios to the above apply to lathes.
Remember, the key measurement to select a scale is traverse (ie the distance of travel) rather than overall length of the table/cross slide etc. Hence using the WM16 example above, overall table length is 700mm but the relevant measurement is the 485mm distance of travel.
We are happy to offer sizing advice for Warco machines - feel free to contact us if you need further guidance.
This DRO system will also work with mills and lathes from other manufacturers. While we are unable to help with specific size questions for non-Warco products, the information above will enable you to select the correct scales for your machine.
For machines requiring larger scales, alternative heavy duty DRO scales available here.
