Hi,

I'm not a machinist, but a business owner so please forgive my lack of technical understanding.

In early March, my company took delivery of two new VMC 5020 units with the 104-d digital controllers. I don't have anything to add regarding the problems, as it seems to me that the things my team has reported to me (and some I've watched occur firsthand) have already been discussed here.

With respect for the rules of this site and forum, I would like to know if there is a website, user group or some means of sharing of information between customers who have bought machines with this controller, regarding machine replacements and settlement with Fadal.

I am now in negotiation with Fadal management and I'm thinking that I and others in my position would benefit from some dialog between us.

Thanks for any insight.

Regards,

SixStringer
