Need a center for cnc lathe....these happen to be on sale....... they are a true nc lathe style Yea or nay?

Doubt I get any bites on these but....well I just hate to see them go to scrap. The one is a universal ,other standard. No issues other than they need put back together, the Univ. will take about 2 hrs to finish up. More pictures available if interested. They are worth $800 at the local scrap...

So...Thinking about a project where the stock is 3" od. Part would be machined on the Od a bit, like a round groove, then some bore work, probably end up with < 1" of material to part. Part around .625 thick+/- So....how much stock can I get away with out of the chuck? (10" chuck) tailstock is...

Is there a place to find out what drive/amp would work with a selected Fanuc servo? Like a cheat sheet??

Just thought I'd run it by you all...... Need to free up the vises .........,and it will be easier on my back to get this fixture out of the vises. Figured I'd use these aluminum spacers with one long anchor bolt down the middle.... There is a huge chip load (plastic) when running this ,hence...

Machine coming in is 22,000 lbs ...CNC Drawing shows feet , 6 of them The vertical line is the seam between two sections of concrete. I have verified the concrete in this aera is 9/10 " thick, been here since '74 I can place the machine where the drawing shows, but if I could move it to the left...

Have a real nice koma 12 " rotary which has Fanuc yellow cap servo. Is it possible to put a red cap AC servo on it, anyone done this? Is the bolt pattern the same? I don't see any reason the table cares what servo sits on it..........electrical is still controlled by the drive etc.

Bought this years ago when we were doing the "wood" thing..... Used it for a little bit.... The wiring was crazy bad so we took all that off....never got around to redoing it.... Motors are 115/220 single phase 1725 rpm All heads variable speed and counterbalanced on columns, when lock is...

Dispersing my equipment that we used in our wood shop...... Lathe comes with all shown We rebuilt the lathe when we purchased it, there are no mechanical issues. Wire it and run... motor is 3ph on 208. Easy swap out to single phase motor $750.00 PM for further details. Free loading Located...

Dispersing my equipment that we used in our wood shop...... Oakley 10" sander with 10hp motor can be wired 230/480, currently wired 480 We rebuilt the sander when we purchased it, there are no mechanical issues. Wire it and run....will include bunch of belts. $2500.00 PM for further details...

The job: Drill hole and tap 10-32 thru side of nut into open .250 hole which is already there........(same 316 SS stud as in other post...LOL) Stud is 3.0 overall, nut has been tigged to stud. Right now use a Burgmaster with twin drill/tap-head setups. Goes quite fast but daughter can't do...

Job is holding a 3" long .500 dia threaded stud into which a hole will be drilled (.250 dia x.400 deep) Job does not justify a collet chuck......... Threads cannot be damaged so no hard jaws. Can one use soft jaws and bore hole undersized, say .437+/- and run from there? Seems simple enough...

Job coming up where many thru holes are needed in 1.250 square carbon tubing with .120 wall. tube approx 36" long Concerned about coolant not getting to drill inside the tube, I don't think aiming the coolant at the top hole will work?? Thought about plumbing some kind of "line" to flow coolant...

Material: painted .125 aluminum sheet ........ sheets range from 4x16 thru 12x 16 Work to be done: put holes, squares, rectangles of various sizes in the plates in various positions. Problem: sheets cannot be scratched up by the process. Parts are currently being done on a water jet but I'm...

First, I am not buying one, I do not own one, I have no intention of ever having one...........whew..... :rolleyes: I have watched I think every shop tour on Yout*be, just getting ideas about storage , layout, process, etc. all that stuff. There are shops, BIG shops, with over 50 + Haas...

You can't believe everything you read on the internet...so Is a warmup cycle mandatory, a good idea or a waste of machine time? I'm thinking maybe a good idea...but not seeing how a few min of movement affects any thermal issues. Maybe moves some lube around..... Anyone here do cycles?

Ok , I'm not buying one...yet....lol...maybe never...who knows..... But what is the advantage of a Horizontal machine? I've seen the big ones doing large weldments etc, but I'm thinking the smaller ones like the EC series from Haas Don't start a Haas bashing thing, I just picked them so you...

Have both CNC lathe(well, soon) and mill to do task. Starts out as purchased disc, 3" od .500 thick Od is reduced, flat is added. Internal thread is 1.375x16 Thickness is reduced also. Two .375 thru holes. Just trying to figure out the most efficient way....Have made these but on manual...

Getting my programs in place so once the lathe gets here I'm ready to go. Getting close :cool: Material is 1.375 od CR Finished part is a simple spacer .500 thick. There is a hole in the middle but that's easy...lol Question: when these come off the bar I need both sides chamfered...

This isn't a machine question...lol Who can I contact to purchase indexable tooling for the lathe? Square holders, parting, grooving, indexable drills and the like. Looking for a supplier that knows their stuff as I don't know specifically what to ask for ,clamping options, coatings...
