- X/Y Table and Tooling Plate
Add an X/Y Table and Tooling Plate to your Open Table Laser Marking System. The tooling plate has dual purpose ¼” holes, on 1” centers. These holes are threaded ¼-20 on the bottom and reamed to ¼ on the top. This allows each hole to be used as a “part locating” hole when a ¼” dowel pin is inserted. Each hole can also be used as a clamping hole using the ¼-20 thread.
In addition to the ¼-20 holes, the plate also has 10-32 holes which are positioned to mount the rotary table and tilting angle plate.
See diagram below for hole location and description.
