It seems like it's WAY too easy for the spammers to blow up this forum. They sign up and 1 minute later they are spewing spam all over the place. Can we adjust the sign up requirements to eliminate this crap or just continue to live with it?
Up for sale is a used but cleaned Royal Filtermist FX-275 unit. I bought a lot of 4 units and have 3 of them installed in my small shop. This was the smallest unit of the bunch. I cleaned it up and tested it to make sure it does work. Wired for 230 volts 3 phase, but please verify before...
Well, I figure it's high time I started my own shop thread. :D
We built the 22' x 26' shop in the back corner of our yard back in 2007. The house sits in a cul-de-sac so the back yard is rather large compared to the front yard. The shop is 2 x 6 stick frame construction and has 9' ceilings...
Hey Guys, my channel is finally live on YouTube! I thought I should start a new thread.
I have some very beginner videos showing how to power up the machine and jog it around and also what screens we use on a regular basis to program and run the machine.
Tool probe video. Jaw boring video...
Hey Guys,
I'm planning on making a bunch of Mazatrol lathe training videos and posting them on YouTube in the near future because I keep getting requests via PMs to make some videos. Searching around on YouTube yields very little in the way of Mazatrol videos so I can definitely see there is a...
I would like to purchase a high feed endmill for our Mazak Integrex. I would likely be using it mainly to circular interpolate large holes in 1018 and 316ss. I have never used a high feed mill, so I definitely need some guidance as to who makes a good product.
I had a R&D job today that...
Up for sale is a bunch of retention knobs that are Mazak and Fadal style 45° CAT40 knobs. They look unused and most of them are serialized. I do not have the individual boxes these originally had.
8 pcs are standard length not coolant through (sideways ones).
57 pcs are standard length...
To make this easy, each piece below is $40 + USPS Shipping. I will combine shipping if you guys want to buy more than one item. Unfortunately, nothing will fit in the small boxes, but all 4 items will fit in a single Med USPS box.
I take Paypal and Postal Money Orders. I also take...
I have 3 Aloris AXA 5C collet holders in new shape. One is missing the collet nut.
$40 each holder, plus shipping. Will Ship USPS Flat Rate or whatever you prefer.
I have a bunch of Aloris tool holders that are in almost brand new condition. I bought the holders 2 years ago surplus to replace my old school 4 way, but did not have an Aloris tool post to use them. I bought the tool post on Craigslist last year, but never put it to service. I ended up with...
Anyone used Blaser 7000 coolant yet? I have used the old Vasco 1000--and it's replacement Vasco 5000 at work, but looking online I see Vasco 7000 is supposedly good for hard water use.
I am looking to run this in the home shop (read: no DI water), and wondered how it performed.
Paging...
Today my 2 year old CNC mill with Fanuc Oi-M cut an oval hole instead of a round hole when circular interpolating a Ø2.25 +/- 0.010" bore. One axis of the hole was 2.248" and the other was 2.228". After about 2 hours of head scratching, I discovered the issue. I was just happy I did not scrap...
I know that EIA (G-code) was an option on early lathes and mills with the T2/3 and M2 controls. If the cabinet had an FX-17 board, you had that option.
We have two older Mazaks at work. My T3 had EIA option from the factory as evidenced by the FX-17 ink stamp and all the associated wiring...
My Friend bought a 1988 QT 10N atc/mc two years ago and it has sat in his garage without power since then. Well, he finally got some cash together to get it running. He is running it on a Kay 20hp Phase Converter.
We replaced the Nicad batteries and reloaded the parameters. We cannot get...
Which control first had TPC--T32 or T+? I liked the TPC on the T+ integrex I used to run and it was the only thing I really missed when I went back to the T3 control. Looking at getting a used machine and wondering if the T32 had the TPC function. If it does, is it similar to the T+...
I started a new thread because I didn't want to muddy up the other nub thread.
I have a problem when ID threading on my T-3 control. If the initial stock line (PNO 0) ID value is set to zero (as needed to drill the center of solid stock), the threading bar will retract to clear the minor...
I have run this machine for 12 years and know quite a bit about it. In fact, it is my favorite machine amidst the hundreds of CNCs at work. :smoking:
However, I have a question about automatically probing a turning tool with the T-3 control. This is my first attempt at it with the T-3 in a...
