Mandelli 8 CNC Machine Centre tool changing for 45 mins. Relaxing, soothing, mechanically satisfying
This is a 45 minute video of a CNC machine made by Mandelli in the 1990's captured today whilst it works it's last few days before being shut down and dismantled.
The tool changer and belt holding the tools for the jobs it is working on makes a satisfying mechanical kerchunk-kerchunk noise with hissing and popping as well as automated action from doors and the auto tool changer.
It's not meant as an educational video at all but just a moment in time when this old school machine smashes its way through the tasks at hand.
