Me, personally, I'm specifically looking at ATCs for routers, very different as we have to go to tool holder, release, grab, and work out the new tool length.
Probably more important, the initial ATC spindle selection. I'm a bit confused what all is on the market and "worth it".

There is a specific HAL component for that tool changer, and for a couple of closely-related ones. http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ContributedComponents#Denford_Orac_Lathe_ATC_toolchanger_component I believe that the Orac was actually named after: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characters_of_Blake%27s_7#Orac -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
