I'm in need of a roller for use in an industrial machine. Something 60" wide, 3-4" diameter, and covered in rubber. It would be excellent if the rubber had a diamond pattern or similar in it. The roller will be used to feed cloth through the machine.
Actually, I can make the roller just fine...
I have many Capto C5 tool holders available. These are from a mill/turn that we've sold. All are in good condition, some are new. Pictures below don't include all tools but are intended to give a general representation of the condition.
We can accept payment by credit card if you'd like...
We're looking forward to the arrival of a Citizen L20. We'll be turning 1215, 12L14, and 416 mostly and I'm looking for tooling recommendations.
What inserts are working well for general turning work? We use a lot of VNMGs in our shop, but do I remember correctly that negative geometry...
OK, so my swiss knowledge is dated. I owned for a while a Citizen L25 that was about a '99 model or so. It has a standard rotating guide bushing. For a turning center guy it was a pain.
The sales guys are telling me all about these new guide bushings that self adjust. Claims that I can run...

Cincinnati Monoset grinder with many accessories. Includes ID Grinding attachment, extra wheels, extra collets, wheel dresser, work centers. Has motorized work head. Grinder was formerly US Navy property and was government rebuilt before being sold off. Everything is tight and has very...
I received SV0383 X Pulse Miss alarm today. Machine is locked up, tried powering off etc no results. Ellison guys tell me that we've got a failure (possibly just needing cleaning) of the X axis glass scale. They gave me the info needed to just use the encoder and basically turn off the scale...
Can anyone recommend a paint pen brand for marking steel and general shop use? All I can seem to find are the art pens. I need to paint dirty greasy surfaces and want it to stay as long as possible.
Is there anyone who can do consistently good work? It seems we fight problems way too often. If they're located in the southeastern US that's even better.
I am about to purchase my first tool and cutter grinder for the purpose of ID grinding some bores. Most of these will be near .250" ID and about 1.5" or so deep in the part. Material is 12L14 hardened to about 60c.
Can someone point me toward some appropriate mounted stones? Any advice is...
We own an older (1997, M94A controller) ABB robot in a machine tending application. The plan is to replace it very soon with something newer, expecting that the software and interface will be easier to use. We feed a mill from parts in arrays.
Currently we're leaning toward Kawasaki and ABB...
Who can give some feedback on Ellison's service and support, specifically in GA and the Carolinas? They're our new Doosan dealer, and I'm just looking to get a feel for what the change will bring...
What will I see if I have bad spindle bearings in my lathe?
Will it first show up as chatter that I didn't have before?
Would I see it if dialing in a part very carefully?
Any tests that I can run my self?
Question for those more educated on coolants and oils and such-
We're running Blaser Universal 2000 and keep pretty good tabs on concentration and such. Our turning centers put a pretty good amount of way oil into the coolant, though we run oil separators and skim oil off with a vacuum when...
Nice machine that has served us well. Pneumatic barfeed that will feed material from 1/4" dia to 4" diameter, up to 60" long. Selling because we replaced it with a new lathe and barfeed combination. Barfeeds are still well supported by a gent who was associated with the company, parts and...
Our shop is considering one of these lathes. Can anyone give some real world feedback? It will have the OSP 300 control. We run Fanuc based turning centers and have never had an Okuma.
Is setting tool offsets, work offsets easy? How about file upload and download? It takes too many buttons...
For sale is our Mazak SQT 100 MSY. Machine is a 2000 model, runs well, and can be inspected under power. We have 5 live tool holders and several extra static tool holders. Fusion 640T control, Y axis, live tools, and sub spindle. I have an SMW Spacesaver barfeeder to go with it (has not been...
We are looking at Delcam for SW and in our region the first line of support is through Trimech in VA. At first contact they seem to have it together pretty well. They tell me that I shouldn't have to contact Delcam for support and that they can handle it all. How is the support after we bite...
Please give your feedback on the overall best software for live tooled lathes. We're running a Fanuc controlled Doosan with subspindle and live tools, and a Mazak with live tools, Y axis, and sub. Our parts are modeled in Solidworks and right now HSMWorks isn't getting the job done on the...
