Cyclone with Fanuc 21iT

Hi,
has anyone got a copy of the parameters for this machine?
parameter 1320 & 1321 would help to start with, I'm trying to work out if the X axis is 0.000 at ref position and X-178.000 to spindle centreline or 178.000 at ref and 0.000 at spindle centreline.
thanks,
Chris.

Re: BARRUFALDI TOE80,

Thanks very much for the advice, I made new pads from some PTFE bar I have, these have definitely made a difference, what material would they have used from new? It seems odd that it breaks down and crumbles,
Chris.

Re: BARRUFALDI TOE80,

The clunk of the index lock position seem to be getting louder, I’ve made some aluminium boring tool holders to cut down the weight imbalance and that helps, I am just planning ahead in case one day the turret doesn’t work. It’s quite interesting that denford now make their own turret at least they ...

BARRUFALDI TOE80,

Hi,
has anyone found a replacement type of turret for the cyclone sized machine?
the Italian company no longer make the TOE80 and don't have a similar sized turret to offer in place of it.
what type of turrets do Denford fit on new machines today, does anyone know?
thanks,
Chris.
