  1. Re: Mori Seiki MV-40M Way Cover Size? And Wiper/ Plastic in back?

    I was just looking for wipers for my 89 mv-40b. The wiper in there was a close match to a WIM19 from BUWW.

    I called several venders and it was mind bogling how much the wiper material can...

    Re: MV-40B draw bar clamping force

    Replaced the stack and re assembled. Clamping force is now 1750 lbF which is right at the top of the spec.

    Can't wait to get to machining some fresh parts.

    So it was on the bottom end of the spectrum.

    I got it all disassembled and did not see any broken washers, fortunately.

    Is there anything that tricky about them? Any reason someone couldn't machine a new set of claws w/ their own mori?

    Re: MV-40B draw bar clamping force

    Just measured the clamping force and read 1300 lbs. Seems like i should probably take it apart and refresh the stack!
  9. Re: How to load G-code to Mori-Seki VM40 with a Fanuc O-M controller via Serial Port

    I would imagine its probably not feasible or worth the cost of trying to upgrade a 10M based machine to something much newer... Is that right?

    I have an 89 mv-40 as well but it has Fanuc 10M. So the upgrade is going from 10M to O-M or did yours come with 0-M from the factory? Always wondered how my mine would machine with a newer...

    Re: MV-40B draw bar clamping force

    Sounds right... about the air / oil closed loop.

    You wouldn't happen to have a service manual for performing this task would you?

    Re: MV-40B draw bar clamping force

    It has the oil cooler mounted by the rear left of the machine if you thats what you mean.

    I know I hear compressed air blow off sounds during tool changes.
