If you decide to part it out, please let me know. I will purchase the tool turret.

Thanks,

Hello Oded !!

I have this same machine, just the color is different.
I plan on converting my machine to PathPilot and servos.
I cannot tell from your picture where the damage is located, can you point it out?
You should move your post to the Machines Triac section.

Hello!!

Do you know if the Tech School has more to sell?

Thanks

I will go down the Unit tomorrow and get some measurements for you.

I know that this is a old post, but Lone_Ranger, did you ever sell it? Iron-Man Hi, no I didn`t sell it, just put it back on the shelf as I was going to buy another Orac and do a full conversion to all modern electrics and CSMIO motion control system but the deal on the lathe fell through so I stil...

Did you find a turret? I'm looking for a novaturn turret ATM. No, but still looking. I have a EMCO Turret that I am modifying. I hope to start the TRIAC mod this year and make a new one from scratch. Iron-Man I would be interested in working with you to make one if you're interested? I have a Triac...

There is one for the Orac on Ebay, from what I have seen the Novaturn went from a single to dual pawl on the locking mech. My Starturn 5 looks to be the same as the orac unit. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Denford-Orac-Auto-Toolpost/323220743229?hash=item4b4175243d:g:dbcAAOSw42ta3Lbq Thanks, but I am ...

I started my conversion of a EMCO Tool Turret a few weeks ago. STATUS: EMCO Compact 55 Tool Changer modified with a AMT203 ABS Encoder with SPI interface. ARM LPC1768. The encoder interface is now working. Denford NovaTurn AC Servo Lathe used to make new encoder adapter. The set-up uses the existing...

TO: Denford

Are there any other drawings and photos available, of the NovaTurn Turret, that show the shafts and locking mechanism?

In addition, have any more spare parts become available?


Thanks,

Hi all. I am still looking for a turret for the NovaTurn. I am in the process of adapting a EMCO turret. In addition I am looking at having the NovaTurn Turret manufactured from the drawings with changes. The changes will include a AC servo and absolute encoder. I have been very busy on other projec...

I am still looking for a Turret to purchase.

Mitip the Yaskawa 100W servos I used were almost a perfect fit. I only needed to make new motor plates. If you want to use Mach 3 then you will need servo drives that use step-direction. I am using a complete closed loop system. My servo drives take +-10V analog with encoder feed back to Linuxcnc / ...

Pete, toby1995, mitip. My current system is using Ac servos (+-10V). If you want to use steppers, let me know. In addition, what would you like to see in a "Kit"? I could provide a basic kit and or a list of parts. If you want to use steppers, I would need to change hal/ini files and use a mesa 7i76...

Pete, toby1995. I can put together cost information. Just let me know if you want to go stepper or servo system. A lot of the cost depends on what you use. For example new servos and drivers can be had on ebay, but it can take some time searching. I am debating on providing a system that would inclu...

Denford NovaTurn refit with AC servos.
1/4 20 thread test with sample parts.

Three (3) phase power is not needed. I am using dual power from 220v and 115v standard.

hi there nice work! I'm not enjoying the inaccuracy of my triac and the noise from steppers is annoying aswell. its not terribly inaccurate but I'm not too pleased with it. I'm trying to make this triac a serious machine for production work with the tightest tolerances being +/-0.01mm and i just do...

As promised, a short video of referencing the X and Z axes.
