    Schaublin 135 cross slide has gone bananas

    I have seen many times parts like that getting bowed due to stress caused by the casting itself. Over the years the stress relieves and the part bows.Now you pushed it back I think the internal stress is back again. Heat treatment does not completely the trick, time does the trick here . It's...

    Scrapping another FP4A D11

    I always hate see a machine scrapped. But I know you can't save them all.

    Deckel Maho MH 600W

    Try to find a Maho MH600E2 with a 432 control for that budget. Much better machine than the MH600W.

    The MAHO 800C with the 532 is a great machine.

    EMO

    I think this firm called Beijing Jingdiao makes their own controls but they look like Haas controls. They also have their own CAD/CAM software. https://www.marktplaats.nl/v/doe-het-zelf-en-verbouw/draaibanken/m2004560782-fanuc-robodril-d21mia5

    Second Deckel FP4MK I ever had also comes from the UK

    One for the boneyard

    To old for professional users, to bulky for home or hobby users. These machines are in no mans land. Perhaps some demand in Eastern-Europe. But please let us know how the auction went.

    FS - Schaublin 150 lathe w/tooling.

    I don't know the Riten IIRC centers. But I know SFJ also made centers for Sandvik. These are very good too. Maybe you mentions these? There are also 1 or 2 Japaneese manufactures that are (from what I've heard) even better the Swiss. But I don't know their names.

    Sorry but I have to say it:a beautiful Schaublin with a very ugly live center.... They came orginally with a Gepy center.
