Drawbar power is the maximum power that can be delivered from an engine or motor to a load. It is calculated at the point where the drawbar is connected to the load. Drawbar power is used to measure the performance of a tractor and other similar engines. Drawbar power is measured in either horsepower or kilowatts.
Therefore, I looked at the price of a new 440 with PathPilot and a power drawbar (but no encloser, base, TTS sets, etc. so it would be a better comparison). The total came out to 7,850. On the other hand, the Taig upgrades (new frame, TTS spindle, power draw bar, new spindle motor) come to about 2,150. This of course, is using my existing ...
The R8 spindle was made by a friend and myself and another friend designed the power drawbar setup for it, the motor mount and spindle mount. I've since upgraded to a DMM 750W servo motor. All of my build info is on the Taig facebook group. FYI, the spindle (and everything else) was designed and made from scratch just for the TTS system.
Re: DIY Power drawbar what are the options... From what I've read, TTS is a pretty lowpower holding system. Seems to be good to around 610 ftlbs of torque and up to around HP. It is inexpensive though, and easy to retrofit to most R8 (and MT3 I think,) mills. There are Chinese TTS clone holders, with the flange and all, but from what I ...

The controller runs a couple of pneumatic valves to separately move the assembly down and separately engage the butterfly impact wrench.
Powered or Power Drawbars are a tremendous convenience for CNC Milling Machines and an absolute requirement if an Automatic Tool Changer is to be used. Basically, they allow push button capture and release of tool holders from the spindle. There are three prevalent types including Impact Wrench, Tormach TTS Style, and Pull Stud.
