The "factory" oil is always flushed and replaced prior to the mill shipping out. There should be no reason to change out what is currently in the head for some time. There will always be visible...

It will definitely be metric. The factory has changed them slightly over the years. Currently they are 12mm x 1 thread with an O-ring and 10mm Allen head.

As Arizonavideo mentioned, the head is filled through the breather cap and the drain is inside the cavity under the head. The head will take about 3.75 quarts of oil (to center of sight glass). We...

You should have 26" of travel on the X axis. This can be stretched but the table will be traveling past the edge of the saddle. Check the distance between the adjustable stops. If it is greater than...

Hi guys,

We have plenty of the KL34-170-72's in stock and currently on sale for $129. If anyone else is looking to make this swap, we also have Z axis top plates machined and ready to ship.

We are now offering these table top enclosures. With the addition of a drain hole in the table, they are exceptionally functional and actually work for containing the majority of the coolant....

Bob,

Thank you for an honest and fair review. We can’t apologize enough for the rough setup, but consider that your feedback is appreciated to improve our product and that we take customer...

Bob,
Thank you for your patience through this process. You are absolutely correct, this will be added to our pre-shipment check list. The replacement cover is on the way. Please let us know if there...

For argument's sake, the two are not compatible. I had completely neglected the fact that you have the Mach1 system when I suggested the belt drive. That being said, in order to use the Mach1 with...

You are correct. That is just a "breather" for the head.

Yes. 26" will take you to the saddle's edge in either direction. The mill will achieve more travel past the edge of the saddle. We will be editing our advertised envelope noting just that. No...

It is too early in the works to estimate the price. We are going to try to make it as affordable as possible.

There is something very similar in development. Still too soon to give an ETA though.

Please feel free to give us a call tomorrow for some assistance with the configuration. If that is the issue, it shouldn't take long to straighten out the problem.

Bob,
I apologize for the shipping disaster.
Here is what I got from them this morning:
BOL 58669223 – New Haven, CT – Yuma, AZ – Carrier is reporting shipment is ‘Out to Deliver’ today, Mon.,...

A good replacement for the stock rubber cover is Buna-N rubber. It is flexible and oil resistant. A .125" x 12" x 24" sheet from McMaster-Carr is $15.00 and can be mounted using the stock rails.

We may be in luck.
From the freight rep this morning:

Bob,
We're keeping our fingers crossed for tomorrow. I'll let you know if I hear from the freight carrier.

Bob,
Your giving us anxiety! :)
Hope the mill arrived today. Please let us know if you have any questions about the setup.

Enjoy!

Our new design (available in June) is direct drive. So flipping the servo is not an option. Even with that being the case, the top of the spindle motor is the highest point on the machine when the Z...

We can take 5" off the height of the stand, if you don't mind a lower than average table height.

To allow for full travel on all axes you will need 40” Deep x 84” Wide x 93”High (on our 28" Tall stand). We can fabricate a custom height stand at no extra charge if necessary.

No housing required. The prox sensors mount on a simple bracket. As I mentioned, I don't believe they will work with the old system. Can you tell me a little more about your controls?

We have actually switched to a proximity sensor (far more reliable and less complicated than the optical limits).
Unfortunately, I don't believe the prox sensors are compatible with the system you...

We are currently using the PMDX 107 paired with their 126 breakout board. We are happy with the performance of both products.

We are asked about full enclosures on a regular basis. We are working on a design that would be fairly affordable and would break down for ease of shipping. We will keep everyone posted as the design...
