Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Indent thing

I believe they are called ball plungers. The holes they mate up with can be inserted and are called ball buttons. The catalog I am looking at for these parts is from a company called Vlier. It is kind of old so they may or may not be in business.

a CNC machine, someone mentioned the name of the part that gives
the indent feel. Basiclly it's a small threaded rod, hollowed out with a
spring and a ball inside. The ball sticks out the end a bit and would engage
a series of holes to give an indented feel. I looked them up at the time,
and now that I need one I can't remember the name. Have not been able
find the post in the archives since I can't remember the name of the damn
thing. Anyone??

Thanks
Bill
