Re: Bigger iron.




Hi Dave

After a quick search for some pictures - That is one big machine !

The long term problems with retrofitting with EMC would be :-
a) No PLC functions for the 24 tool changer.
b) No support for hard tapping (A floating tapping head would work).
c) Small problem with spindle speed control.

Regards, Paul.
