Zeiss ROT 350 - Motorized Rotation Table Specs for screw holes

[[Au...]]

Hi There,

I have a 350mm rotation table but I cannot find anywhere what the specs are for the screw holes to mount parts to the turn table. What I am looking for in the specs are as follows:

What is the threads of the screw holes? Metric or Standard and what size. 

The depth of the screw hole so I know how long of a screw to use that wont damage internal components.

Distance between sets of screw holes - See below for the distances of each black line.

I couldn't find any documentation, so maybe one of the HOM people can chime in. 

It's most likely metric threads, somewhere between M4-M6 would be my guess. As for the spacing, you could either measure it with your scanner, or rough guess with a tape measure (I believe the Q comes with a centimeter tape measure).

True, this holes are metric screws M5. I simply drilled more threaded holes into the plate to optimally position my mounts. However, you should unscrew the plate first. Otherwise the shavings will be in the housing and could possibly cause short circuits on the controller.

If you have screws near the center, they must not be too long, otherwise the gearbox housing will be damaged. There is space further out towards the bottom.
