I¡¯ve never tried.

But, I think that you might need an in-band spindle for power tapping.
Andy,
Is ModBus fast enough for reversing and tracking for power tapping?

Quick little survey on what everyone has on their machine for spindle control.
1. Do you have a VFD on a 3 phase motor for Lathe or Mill.
2. Does the CNC controller drive the spindle or do you set the speed and ON/OFF manually?
Just curious
