Revolutionary belt drive system spins the armature through a middle shaft, and results in vibration-free cut and slave motor extended life.

A fine pitch thread is used on the feed screw; one graduation on the feed knob corresponds to a 0,01 mm movement of the tool bit, all this without backlash.

Surface of the supports is treated to ensure smooth movement of the tool block.
It is possible to easily and precisely adjust the movement of the cutting tool operating wheel. Tighten or loosen the adjustment screw in the left side of the tool head, which adjusts the pressure on the plastic insert-pad, resulting in fine control of the tightness of tool head movement.

Accurate adjustment of stand positioning.
Stands are produced in pairs to ensure 100% similarity, and are both keyed into a common channel to ensure perfect alignment. Plastic clips for armature are included as standard accessories.

New small wheel for backstop adjustment.

Revolutionary armature axial support. Shaft spins between hardened steel “V” guide and top ball bearing in Axial Support - no vibrations whatsoever! #101901 Hudy Axial Support available as option only. A "must have" option for professional cutting.
