Title: Brain for air valve for machine that requires air
Post by: drew on March 14, 2013, 05:47:08 PM

Ok so my HNC leaks air badly. I use a brain to open the air when ever the machine is running or spindle is on.
Also if I open/close collet do tool change or cutoff or jog. it uses the 'is running' as a trigger.
what i would like is for the air to stay on during and for 10-30 sec after any of these operations.
if you have any ideas please share them.
Thanks Drew

Hi Drew,
please post which outputs do you want to turn the air on, and which output is the air.
