Ok have been trying to figure out how to attach the carousel to the nema34 gearbox. I figured it out so that the weight of the carousel is on the four 8mm bolts that go into the gearbox. I will post some pics when i get the parts done. May not be the best but I can tell you this much you could hang off of it when I get it done! The design I came up with should never fail and outlast the mill and me. I ordered an Igus double rail but yep ordered the wrong one! I needed the 20mm double rail, got it now. The pics are of what it will look like put together minus the box the stepper motor/gearbox will be sitting in to attach it to the rail slide. The other pic is of the PSI sensor for the ATC air system. When the pressure of the system drops below 75psi mach3 through the M6start macro will message the user to check the air pressure. At that point you can stop the procedure or fix the problem and continue on.
Thanks for reading.
