anybody have a fadal 3020 or 4525 with seimens control

is there any fadal 3020 or 4525 with seimens control out there for sale?

I know someone with a Fadal 4525 with a Siemens controller, very good shape. It has low hours, I know, because I'm the only one who has ever used it and I left the company 5 years ago...

They talked about selling it a couple of years ago, though, I'm not sure if he's still interested in selling it...

If you're still looking for a machine like this let me know and I will ask the owner, we are good friends...

Thanks,
Charlie

hi Charlie
I am still looking for a fadal with seimens would your machine be available yet and what price?
thanks ivan martin

Hi Ivan,

I will ask my friend about it.

Is there any particular reason that you are looking for such a machine, it's a really good machine as machines go, but its a 2001 year model machine and they've come a long way since then.

I know Fadal machines are once again being sold, I went to an open house about 6 months ago and the new machines are very capable tools.

So why a 14 year old machine, if I may ask...?

Ivan,

The Fadal 4525 is in San Diego California. I talked to him, he is interested in selling it... He's looking to get about $25,000 for it, its in excellent condition. He has no other use for the 40 or so tool holders and 2 Kurt vices so I assume it would be a lot price for the whole thing. Rigid tapping, washdown system all working, no rust, new looking paint, etc. at least the last time that I used it...

Thanks,
Charlie

Charlie
what options does the fadal 4525 have does it have the hi and low belt setup for the spindle ?
and does it have the chip auger for it?
and can you get the hours on the machine?
thanks ivan martin

Ivan,
The machine has automatic hi/lo gear, I believe it shifts gears at 2500/2501 RPM, It has the auger and internal hi volume wash down with timer..
I can't go visit the machine so I asked to get the hours and also some pictures of it..
