on the turret. Since the way the turret is made is not exactly
perfect, swapping a tool to a different pos

Can you do that with three different numbers so that I can figure out which is
which?
But, you seem to be saying that lathes don't use the tool-table pocket number?

That wasn't what I meant. I meant that it was just one fixed variant
toolhandler, rather than a generic way to allow other approaches.

Have you guys made any improvements on the Fanuc tool change patch?
I have that setup on three turning centers in our shop, and it is used all

The Tormach website for their new lathe shows a rather elaborate
