Looking at another fixture and I would like to mount a 3-1/2" square bar extending about 8 inches out from the face of my 4th axis.
If I make a flange that will bolt to the face plate on the Sankyo rotary, how do I attach a 3-1/2" square tower onto it?
Press fit into a pocket on the face plate?
Dowel pin with some long 1/2" dia dowel pins and a couple 1/2 bolts?
Make the flange out of aluminum?
Make the the 3-1/2" bar out of aluminum? 6061 or 7075? Which is stiffer?
Or cast iron, nice chunk of 3-1/2" dura bar standing out from the flange?
The fixture is for some aluminum parts, essentially a 7" x 3/4 x 2-1/4 blade.
