    I'm reading this slightly differently. OP - if you can confirm my assumption here:-

    Numbered questions - just confirm or deny.


    1) Maxicam-M3 - you have an additional relay that is switched with the M3 (Spindle?) - so when you're cutting, the relay is on?

    2) You have a separate Extraction system, that you want to use with the Maxicam?

    3) The separate Extraction system has two momentary push buttons, for On and Off?

    4) You want the relay on the Maxicam to effectively push "On" when the spindle is on? and push "Off" when the spindle is turned off?


    If the above is broadly correct, there's any number of ways to do this depending on the complexity that you're prepared to endure. My first question though is whether the Maxicam needs to co-exist with either the controls or other machines? (i.e. can you sacrifice the controls, or not - can the Maxicam be the only control?) To co-exist needs something slightly more complicated than a simple relay.

    Also, what do you know above the extractor controls - are these push-button controls switching 415VAC?, or a low voltage pendant?

    Edit:

    For an industrial environment, I'd be examining the datasheet for somethink like https://media.automation24.com/datasheet/en/600XU.pdf - only chosen because CPC stock them - using two might give the signalling you need for the two push buttons. It's up to you to review and decide if those are appropriate.
