Manually rotate the rotary disk of the tool changing device, rotate the tool to the tool changing position, and then release the foot pedal. At this time, the rotary disk is in place and the positioning shaft is stretched by the spring. The rotary disk is in place and the positioning shaft is pushed into the positioning sleeve on the rotary disk to achieve accurate positioning of the tool at the tool changing position. The positioning sleeve is installed in the positioning hole of the rotary disk and connected by transition fit. After positioning is completed, the machine tool spindle moves to the tool changing position, and the spindle takes the tool from the rotary disk. During the tool taking process, the tool beating force is applied to the tool beating spring, and the tool beating spring is compressed, which avoids the force deformation of the tool changing device. After the spindle takes the tool, it moves out of the tool changing position and proceeds to the next step. The tool change is completed;
[0008] Replacing the tool blade: Pull out the tool holder tray and rotate the positioning pin into place, and manually rotate the tool holder rotary tray to the appropriate position to replace the blade.
