    Re: Need advice about oil for EMCO compact 6 /120

    Wouldn't have thought that small machine has box ways. Most of the Emco stuff is on linear rails.

    There's a machine and control definition to go along with a specific post for the UMC750 available. Just have to get it from your Mastercam dealer.

    Re: Fanuc 10M MV Junior Mori Seiki

    I think the circuit you have that wired into might be a bit weak, could be you're getting a brown out condition. Memory serves that you might be 20 amps or so low.

    My question was more about the lathe side on Fusion360. I've tried at length to work with it for my lathe and consider it almost unusable.
