Old maho's are like this. It's because the horizontal milling spindle is seen as the main spindle, when viewing from this spindle the Y and Z axes are correct.

This can be multiple things, our maho does this when the way lube oil level is low. Do you have the error module on the control cabinet next to the on/off switch?, there should be two red numbers...
Hello,
Currently working with a Maho GR350C lathe, with the 432T control.
After solving some issues with the control everything seems to be working well.
Machine has live tools and a C-axis with...
Nice thread! Some good information here.
Can you explain how you setup the connection between your pc and the maho?
I'm trying to transfer programs (and later try to use the BTR function) from PC...
It's possible to softmod some of the "Gaming" graphic cards into workstation cards. This can be done with a lot of the Geforce and ATI cards. I had a geforce 7900GT card which I softmodded into a...
I think getting a sturdy drill press, and modifying that with a crosstable is your best option
Nice build! Seems to be coming together great!
What sort of motor are you using to move the axis in the vid where you're standing on it? Is that with the 200V 100W yaskawa servo's :eek:
I've been...
I wouldn't purchase a CAD-CAM program for that part on the picture.
That's easily programmed by hand in a matter of minutes.
I've had good experiences with esprit for a CAD-CAM program
Sounds like a good idea to me, if the motor is having a hard time because of the 45 degree angle you can always make a counter weight that pulls the crossslide upwards like some milling machines have...
How are you planning to rotate the lathe,
I can imagine that its a bit fiddly to load a workpiece and see at what you're doing if you rotate the lathe away from where you're standing (so you're...
That is looking great!
The granite makes it look like it's going to be a very accurate machine
What sort of travels are you aiming for? And are you going to mount a tailstock?
nice project! i've just read the topic from start to end (took 2 hours) but it was worth it!
i'm just curious about how you are going to align the spindle with the z-axis.
I figure it would be easy...
