Power Draw Bar Beta Testers Needed

One of the first posts on the blog this sum­mer was a sneak peak of our Power Draw Bar pro­to­type for use with the PCNC. If you’ve been to a work­shop here, you’ve prob­a­bly played around with the first pro­toype as well — the power draw bar machine is everybody’s favorite machine to use, no ques­tion about it.

We are now start­ing the early adoption/beta test­ing period and are look­ing for sev­eral PCNC own­ers who would like to par­tic­i­pate. Please email us at info@tormach.com if you are inter­ested. We will begin con­tact­ing peo­ple with infor­ma­tion about the pro­gram, pric­ing, etc. around the mid­dle of next week. We have lim­ited amount of slots avail­able, but will accom­mo­date as many as we can.

PS.
Min­i­mum Require­ment for Beta Sites: Air Com­pres­sor that can hold pres­sure at 120psi. Must be TTS user. Ide­ally, we’d like to find a few peo­ple who use the machine on a daily basis. *UPDATE 11/15/2009* 120 psi is just for the beta ver­sions. We’ve already made a design change for the pro­duc­tion ver­sion so you can use with a more typ­i­cal house­hold compressor.

   I’d be happy to be a beta tester for this piece of gear. I oper­ate my machine daily for my com­pany Resource Man­u­fac­tur­ing LLC.

   Hi Greg

   I’ll be happy to be a beta tester, all our tool pro­duc­tion are done on the Tor­mach machine.

   The power draw bar would save me a lot of time due to the num­ber of tool changes I go through

   I’d be hapy to beta test this device. Where do I sign up?

   Good day. I have PCNC sn 1142, use tor­mach tool­ing exclu­sivly and have the required com­pressed air supply.

   What is the cost?
   If the unit is not accept­able is a refund or credit avail­able?
   I have the orig­i­nal spin­dle drive, is there issues with spin­dle upgrade and should it be done before or after the power draw bar upgrade?

   Leo:

   Thanks for your inter­est. We have no more slots avail­able in the beta pro­gram at this time. Keep watch­ing here for other beta annoucements.
