Guys, I am in the planning phase of making a small machining center (i haven't found one I'm pleased with...) and I need a tool changer. My idea at the moment which still is in a sketching phase, is to make a Tormach style changer; http://www.tormach.com/upgrades_tts_atc.html I'm going the Mesa route so I think there's plenty of digital options to design and run it, but I would be very happy if someone who has been into it can help me out here. A "cook book" or documented build would be more than welcome.
I will make pretty much everything on this machine myself, I like it that way, but I plan to get a spindle and found a few like this one at Alibaba; http://bit.ly/12R71Cm Yes, it's Chinese and so on, but they probably make it better than me. Any strong reason why I shouldn't get one of these? If there's something I will get from someone else, the spindle is the first thing to go. I will ask a workshop here to make one, but I'm pretty sure it will cost me a fortune. /Sven ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
