Types of lathe reference

Sorry for my ignorance, but what would the carousel component be?

 

It is part of linuxcnc. Called a component. It will not be in your normal pncconf generated Hal file. 

In short. You load this piece of software in your Hal file that will provide extra Hal pins that can control your turret. 

Open a terminal on your Linuxcnc machine and type man carousel.

Or Google "linuxcnc carousel"

In your Hal file, you load this with loadrt carousel followed by some options.

Add it to an update thread with addf   servo-thread.

Ok, i will run these tests.  

Thank you very much, I probably bother you more….

I think that you need to tell me more MLM019T5LP9 about how the turret is controlled.

Staff after the help and a lot of persistence I managed to make my turret work….  I didn't use it as a carousel, well in the end I believe the biggest problem was related to the cycle start, abort, resume buttons, that wasn't releasing the M6.

I'm trying to interloock the ladder, for example, my spindle in automatic mode is opening and closing the clamp with it turned on.  I even managed to do it using my physical buttons, but I couldn't do it with the buttons on the Gmoccapy screen.
