Hello All,

I cuurently have own a Starmill (without ATC) and was wondering how the ATC worked specificaly the drawbar component.

I can see from some of the pictures it uses a turret to to pressent tools but am not sure how the tool locking mechanism functioned.

If someone could explain or even better supply pictures / design drawings it would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
SRG

I could only find Novamill head drawings, but I'm hoping there won't be much difference between the Starmill and Novamill - these might give you some idea of the difference between manual and automatic versions:
