How do I up-load More Pictures? I have My C6 Turret Finished and I need to know how I can Post more Pics? The unit works Awesome...No hands Tool Changes I edited Mach3 Turn and added an A axis DRO Using MachScreen4.Added a Micro Limit Switch on Turret to Home A axis. Also Added a Chip/Coolant Deflector. Really makes The C6 Look Sharp. I wrote a simple turn /center drill/drill/part-off pgm with the Mcodes in place for the Turret and it works soooooo smoothe... I dont have a video cam so I cant post a video.I made everything with the C6 Lathe 6"OD CRS turned to 5". Bob |

| That is superb work on that turret. I have the same lathe in Manual from Grizzly and wondered how it could be done. Due to that lack of features of the Manual lathe, it is a candidate for CNC soon anyway. Did you use plans for this setup or what? Again, that is excellent. |

| awesome work! A few days ago I found this picture at www.pro.com.sg ![]() I sent a mail to Chan and he told me he didn't tried it yet, it uses a 100:1 harmonic drive and a nema23 bipolar motor. From your experience with the toolchanger you made, do you think this would work? a 2Nm nema motor times 100 should give 200Nm of holding torque, I guess if this is enough to keep the tools firmly in place.

| I am needing to build one of these myself for a small lathe project. This is very cool. Great job on this. Fine details as well. ![]() I have been just considering a standard rotary table myself with a snapping spring mechanism or catch release. It would turn all day in one direction without locking, but turn the other way and it would catch on the first tool location and be held mechanically by the catch and the pressure of the motor and gearing to keep it in place. I just don't want to deal with the air system.

| Hiya, Journey-man. What type of switch do you have that operates this air cylinder? I am going to have to use an air cylinder to build a power draw bar anyway, so I might as well get my feet wet with it. I know I can source the cylinders at Surplus Center. Thanks.

| Today I visited the local representative of www.intorq.de company, they sell reduction gearboxes, brakes, etc. Im doing the homework for a turret like yours SANS the compressed air, after speaking a while with an engineer about doing it with gearboxes I asked: what if I use a brake? He replied, its less expensive solution for sure, and suggested to take a look at these brakes: http://www.intorq.de/content/produkt...t.aspx?lang=en I wonder if one of these can be used to hold the turret safe/firmly in place. What do you think? Pablo |
