Tormach Inc., a supplier of compact CNC machines, has announced it has introduced an automatic tool changer (ATC) for its 24R CNC
Router. The ATC features an ISO20 ATC spindle with a 10-tool rack and automatic lifting dust shoe.
"The ATC is a valuable addition to the 24R CNC router," said a company spokesperson. "The ATC is integrated into Tormach's award-winning PathPilot CNC controller. The 24R is designed to accurately cut a wide variety of materials including woods, plastics, aluminum and more."
With an advanced control, rigid cast-iron bed, welded steel stand, water-cooled chiller, integrated vacuum table and more than a 2' x 4' work envelope, it is capable of meeting 2D and 3D cutting needs.
"The ATC is designed for maximum efficiency," said Reid Halvorson, Lead Engineer for the 24R ATC. "It makes operators' lives easier by giving them the ability to multitask. And since the machine can automatically change tools, it reduces potential operator errors as well as scrap parts."
The ATC also features repeatable tool lengths, which provides faster tool changes. The lifting dust shoe feature allows users to check the router's cutting action while the machine is running and leading into a cut.
Key specifications of the 24R ATC spindle include:
- 1.5 kW
- 10,000 RPM to 24,000 RPM
- ISO20 spindle taper
- Integrated Power Drawbar (PDB)
- Integrated PDB open sensor
- Positive air pressure spindle nose seal
- Liquid cooled.
ATC rack specifications:
- Ten-tool capacity
- Max. tool diameter: 1.75"
- Max. tool gauge length: 4.25".
As with all Tormach products, customers will receive free remote technical support for the 24R ATC via email, phone and video chat.
