1. Drive hub
The drive hub is the rotating part of the machine providing a rigid support for the
gearbox, motor and surfacing arm assembly.
The drive hub is driven by a 3kW (4.02hp) pneumatic motor which is an integral
part of the assembly. Exhaust from the motor is vented downwards through slots
that are machined within the drive hub. These slots are concurrent to mating slots
in the base assemblies to enable sufficient venting
The drive from the motor is passed through two intermediate gears to a drive gear
on the main bearing under the turntable. Air for the motor is fed from the central
coupling.
