ABSTRACT:
A portable bracket assembly capable of being attached to the spindle carriage of a milling machine. A self-contained indexing table and indexing means is located on the assembly together with a transfer arm having three degrees of freedom and articulated fingers for selecting a tool holder from the indexing table and inserting the selected tool holder into the spindle of the milling machine when operated in a first direction and reversing the sequence when operated in the opposite direction. The assembly attachment allows a numerical controlled milling machine to perform sequential operations on a work piece that requires the use of a plurality of different individual tools.
