Hi everyone,
Just a quick question. Our shop has an older Bridgeport VMC 1000, from around 1992. The control system is a Heidenhain/Siemens combo.
During an orient for tool changing, does this machine have a pneumatic shot pin that engages and locks the spindle into position?
Is it held in position only by the motor drive?
Thanks
