My version of a homebuilt power drawbar. I have been wanting to build one of these after hearing what a difference these make running a BP. Biggest reason was that I want to put a 4 inch riser on the mill and I am a not tall enough to reach the draw bolt then. I hate to have to have something laying around to step up onto to reach.

2. Powered Drawbar. 3. Auxilliary, probably a handheld blowgun. Some time ago I got a great deal on integrated air supply units that are really nicely made, so I just dragged one out, drilled and tapped a couple 1/4-20 holes on the back of the mill column, and voila: There is a quick release male connector on the backside out of view.

8,031. Oct 10, 2011. #2. I don't know of a commercial electric power drawbar, but the way some are built, you could take a 12 volt 1/2" impact wrench instead of the 3/8" butterfly impact they all seem to use. It would be a good project, and I imagine could be done. You'd have to come up with a 12 VDC power supply heavy enough to run it, but ...

I have gotten spoiled with the pneumatic draw bar on my CNC mill and the TTS tooling system. I would rather not do any type of pneumatic system on this machine so I was thinking about an electric system. I see Griz has one for BP type machines but at $1100 that's out of the question. If I can't diy it for 1/3 that then I'll look at pneumatic.

A DIY power draw bar seemed like a good project to use the mill for, so I started formulating a plan. Most if not all of the DIY and power drawbars I saw were based on pneumatic impact drivers. Most also used pneumatic cylinders to lower the driver onto the drawbar hex and to actuate the driver. I thought the air driver was a great way to go ...
Apr 5, 2017. #1. Take a look at my DIY power drawbar for the PM 940 CNC VS. I already had a Milwaukee right angle impact tool which I used for the drawbar.
