I'm looking for the X and Y axis feed screw brackets. This was a CNC conversion that I'm changing back to a manual machine.
I may be interested in other parts for this mill as well.

thanks...

Looking for parts / operation and maintenance manuals for a lagunmatic 310 mill.

thanks

I have a Lagunmatic 310 CNC mill and I would like to get a parts/maintenance manual for it. I would prefer to buy an original hardcopy, but I would take a scanned copy also.

Thanks

Hi,
I'm interested in quoting your project. I sent you a private message with my email so you can forward more detailed cad files.

Thank you
Brian

msloan,
I sent you a message about your parts.

Thanks for the input. I've been considering replacing the drives with something else.
Any idea which AMC drives would be most suitable?

I have some newer Westamp drives, that are similar to the...

I have a knee mill with an Anilam Crusader M controller. I'm trying to tune the servos, and followed some instructions that I found here:

Here's a few pics of the mill in its current state.
It has a Speed Rite conversion for the spindle. This is a VFD conversion using a Baldor motor and VFD. All of the components in the original...

I have a Supermax VS16 with a non-working Anilam Crusader M control (3 axis). I recently purchased this machine, knowing that the control had issues. I need some input on the best method for getting...

I have an Anilam Crusader M control on a Supermax knee mill (3 axis) that recently quit working. The servo drives will not come on, and the screen is blank. The screen actually turns on, but all I...

Very impressive machine for the money. Was it difficult to get the electronics figured out?

Why did you choose the Keling drives over the more common Gecko?

Dan,

Thanks for the response. I've never dealt with Novedge, so I just wanted to do a quick background check before I purchase.

I'm planning to purchase Rhino 4.0. It will be used in my business for commercial use.
I've noticed a couple places that sell Rhino. The McNeel website sells it, for $995. I've also noticed that...

Has anyone used XR4 Mill Express yet?
If so, how do you like it for general 2 1/2d machining?

What is the cost for a new seat of XR4 Mill Express?

Thank you

Jackal,

Thanks for taking the time to post the photos. This will be a big help when I decide to do my conversion. I'll be following this thread closely.


thanks

Jackal,

Is there any issue with not having enough power when using the Gecko drives?
I believe they are only rated for 80V. I forget the excact ratings of the servos on my Kondia, but it's around...

Jackal,

Just curious...why did you decide to use the Dugong drives instead of the Viper or other brand?

I have no preference at this point. I'm just wondering what issues / facts made you...

Jackal,

I would be very interested in seeing the other pics that you have. I have a Clausing Kondia CNC knee mill from the early 90's that is very similar to your Hurco. It has the rigid head,...

Hey JAckal,

Any progress on your project?

I would like to follow your retrofit closely, as I'm considering doing a similar project.



Thanks

LMONTY,

Be sure to check the draw bar threads in the NMTB30 tool holders. Some of the older NMTB 30 tooling used 1/2-12 threads, which is a British Whitworth standard, but some of those were sold...

Thanks for the response.

What are you guys using to prevent corrosion?

Torchhead,

Thanks for the response. That is exactly the info I'm looking for.

After seeing that nearly everyone uses a water table, I was beginning to think that my customer made the wrong...

Bill,

Over time, the water will become contaminated with metal dust and other residue from the plasma process.
There are requirements for disposing of water that is used for any manufacturing...

I'm currently designing a cnc plasma cutter, and I'm trying to determine if it is worthwhile to build a water table.

I understand the benefits of a water table, but there is a major drawback -...

Thanks again for all of the input.

Torchhead,

I have seen your products before, when I initially started doing some research on this project. I am impressed with some of the equipment you...

Gerry,

Thanks for the feedback.

I didn't word my questions very well.
I am aware of the resolution and power advantages of servos. I was more confused about positional errors with this type of...

Thanks for all of the feedback so far.

This brings up a couple more questions:

Alan mentioned that when using Mach with servos, the software still works as though it is driving steppers. So,...

I'm working on designing a cnc controller for a knee mill (bridgeport clone).

I want a closed loop servo system. However, I have some confusion about the software.

I've read elsewhere that Mach...

I can't tell you anything about the price. I did read some info on another site that the owner of Grizzly purchased what was left of South Bend Lathe. Those models you mentioned are going to be...
