Auto Chuck on Orac

Post by cjmerlin » Thu 07 Feb , 2008 20:10 pm

Hi, I have been using my Orac for some time now and would really like to have an auto chuck for bar feeding. I recently aquired a Burnerd collet chuck which takes the EC collet range. These are usually fitted to Colchester lathes, Fitting it to the Orac is not an issue but will I encounter other problems like the motor not capable of driving it or the force of closing the collet lever putting strain on the headstock/lathebed mountings or other issues.


Your advice greatly appreciated.



Thanks
