Title: Denford Orac tool changer problem.
Post by: Johnhol on October 23, 2015, 03:45:26 PM

Hi all,

I recently acquired a friends Denford Orac lathe which he had converted to run on mach3. Everything seems to work ok apart from the tool changer which once given a command rotates continuously and doesn't stop. I'm not sure if its a soft wear issue ( macro) or a sensor problem. Has anyone had such a problem or at least have an Idea what it could be?

Cheers John.

What command are you using? By tool changer are you meaning a turret?
