Hey Andy I am very interested in other options. from what I have seen there is very little support for classic ladder around. could you expand on the carousel component please. I will also do a google search for it.
I have almost got to the point to just getting a small click PLC and sending it a toolchange signal input. Then a toolchange signal completion output. But it would be good to be able to get the toolchanger to fail gracefully and then manually trigger it if needed. With all the cnc mills that get retrofitted I am surprised that there is not more info around. But I am probably looking in the wrong place. regards Andrew On Sat, Sep 28, 2019 at 12:58 PM Andy Pugh <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > On 28 Sep 2019, at 01:35, andrew beck <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > my VMC doesn't require axis moment when toolchanging.
