It would be fairly easy to have something that simply "catches" the collet as it drops off the end of the thread. But you could also consider leaving the thread engaged and pulling up against an internal collar (this is assuming that the drawbar thread is smaller than the ID of the collet) There is some risk of this jamming up, though, and it might put some stress on the alignment pin if it is a pin rather than a key. There are a number of rotation limiting designs onYoutube. This one looks like it might work for your application, with only 2 or 3 layers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3airCg2Xd-4 Does a restrictor in the exhaust limit the wrench speed? -- 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, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
