Pneumatic dust boot

[bobby milam]

Does anyone know of a site where I can get some information on setting up a pneumatic dust boot for an ATC? Looking for information on what parts I need to be looking for and the best place to find them. It will eventually be set up on a Centroid Acorn board to operate it. I have searched all over and the best I have found is a couple of videos showing some in operation but no information about them other than the video. This is for a linear setup, not a rotary.

Here is a video that shows one that I designed for my "Ultimate" ATC machines. Most likely wouldn't work in your situation as the spindle and toolholders will be different, but it will give you an idea of the overall component use, how the air cylinders are positioned etc. Sorry if you have seen this already.
