So I am in the market for a new 400mm horizontal and fairly small, but robust vmc to create a new manufacturing cell with. Both machines will be machining aluminum and need to go fairly quick yet...

I think a collet closer from a HLV would work too if someone has one of those they would like to sell. Thanks

I just bought a Hardinge TFB for a good price. It doesnt have the collet closer assembly. Does anyone have one they are willing to part with? It looks like the tube would need to be about 15"-16"...

The more research I do, the more I think that a centerless grinder with a form wheel on it would be the machine of choice. I think I will call up some centerless grinder manufacturers to see what...

Sorry for the confusion, but we already have a bunch of rollomatics for fluting burs, we just would like to find a way to quickly produce tight tolerance, hardened tool steel blanks. The process of...

my restraint with a standard CNC grinder is part holding. These parts are very similar to large dremmel tools. If I go with a CNC surface grinder with a rotory, or even a tool grinding machine...

My work is looking to start making some parts interially. They are small surgical burs made of hardened M2. To be cost competitive we have concluded that due to the diameter tolerances (.0003"...

Thats odd, I clicked on the link and it opened right up.

If I read it right, the current should max out at about 150mA (75mA per PA78). What would be involved in making a switching power supply?...

Any update on the sale date?

While the Tribomam system is pretty cool, and does work, the owner of the company told me @IMTS that the starting price for a system is around 30K.

I would suggest contacting the manufacturer of...

Eldorado has been supplying us with gundrills for a while now. The only problem is that we can only get about 7-8 parts out per drill before it needs to be sent out for sharpening (we dont sharpen...

The company I work at has some parts which have deep hole drilling. The hole diameters vary between .371"-.451" and can be between 7-10" deep. The material is 316SS. We have been making these parts...

I am looking to purchase another used EDM. The series that has been catching my interest has been the Mitsubishi DWC - SZ series. Can anyone tell me a bit about these. The year range I am looking in...

bmngator, thanks for the info. How do you indicate the turret into alignment? Given that the bushing and the turrets move together in Z, it is hard to get an indicator in there to align with. The...

I recently purchased a Citizen F-20. I noticed that the turrets are off alignment by being rotated slightly (usually from a previous crash). I have done this type of alignment on other citizens, but...

Does anyone have the code for rigid tapping on an F20 with a 3T control? I would also be interested in getting the peck drilling cycle too. I havent been able to find these functions in any manuals...
