WORK

[msorcinellimillennium]

Anyone looking for work that can work on a Proto track machine?

 

[Mr. M]

I am sure. Where are you located?

 

[msorcinellimillennium]

Westfield, MA

 

[Mr. M]

I'll do it if you send the machine to me. Hopefully you can find someone nearby.

What kind of WORK does your Proto trak need?

 

[Kustomizer]

That is entirely upon the imagination of the guy running it

 

[Spruewell]

What prototrack do you have? Is it a converted knee mill, or one of their fully enclosed bridge mill units with BT30 tooling and 8 tool capacity? Or a converted lathe?

Maybe everyone is smarter than me but I find this to be very confusing. In an effort to clarify things I'll ask a few questions and then likely move the thread to the appropriate node (section).

Is the OP looking for work to do on a Proto track machine?
if so I would suggest listing capabilities such as 2.5D work, size, cad cam abilities ext

Is the OP looking to sub out work that can be done on a Proto track machine?
if so I would suggest listing what the work is or a basic outline such as size, 2.5D, 3D, tolerances ext.

 

[Spruewell]

Maybe he is looking to hire someone to operate it? Or maybe he’s looking for someone to perform repairs, service and maintenance on it?

pretty vague…

 

[Mike1974]

sounds like he is looking to hire, but?

@Herding Cats I was going to ask him to re-word the title if possible but I see you are on it.

I have a 30 ton hydraulic track pin press built by Proto. Is he looking for someone to operator a Proto track pin press?

 

[Kustomizer]

Sometimes it helps if the OP contributes some

 

[Herding Cats]

I'm 99% sure OP is a woman, hence the MS Orcinelli millenium user name

Years ago I was on vacation visiting family in the Bay area of California. I was bored out of my mind so I hopped on craigslist and spotted the press for real cheap, like $150. I didn't know the geography well, it was a few hours away. I really just wanted a reason to get out and do something so I drove all day to go get it. Glad I did. I don't use it often, but when I do it's about the only thing that will fit in the space and pull or push that much force.

What tonnage is the ram? I have a 50 ton OTC ram, I ws thinking of making a track pin press lashup for it, but I'm thinking it needs to be more pressure than that.

 

[Garwood]

It's only 30 tons. It's a hollow type ram with a bunch of modular parts to make it push or pull.
