    LEADWELL VMC 25 with MELADS M50 controller

    hi

    anyone have the mechanical book of a leadwell vmc 25 with meldas m50 controller?

    i have to chance the bearings on the spindel but i don't know the type of bearings so i need a spare parts book.

    also i loose everytime the G54 seetings when i change program.

    any help will be apreciated.


    maybe could have only the spindel page from the book scanned?

    many thanks!

    Hi,

    I have the exact same machine. I am not in my machine shop right now but I will be glad to help you. I will look in the spare parts list tomorrow (GMT+1).
    I also have a question for you. Does your machine have the 4th (B) axis integrated?

    Question to other members:
    My machine has the B-axis on the control panel but there is no servo controller installed for it. Logically the machine reports an error if I try to move the B-axis. Would it be possible to attach an extra servo controller MDS-A-SVJ-10 in the control chain, adress it and assign it to the B-axis. I have a golden sun rotary table with a separate controller. The idea is to fully integrate this rotary table in the machine so I can do interpolation with the 4th axis. I need some amount of certainty before I buy a $1400,00
    2nd hand servo drive. I could also try sniffing on the control chain and design some interface between the NC and the external controller. But there must be a faster way, right?

    Kind greetings.

    Hi,

    There are 2 sets of spindle bearings. Since you are taking apart the spindle assembly, I would change both. Each part number orders one set (2 bearings).

    C01AA09110, Spindle Bearing (UPPER SET), 2MM9110WIDULFS660
    C01AB09112, Spindle Bearing (LOWER SET), 2MM9112WIDUMFS660

    I will send you a copy of the drawing and the part list later when I get home from my shop. I do not have the time to copy the whole book because it is 50 pages and the drawings fold open -> difficult to copy.

    Kind greetings.

    i understand, maybe only the page with the bearings will be enough for me.

    thank you again for your help.


    GOOD LUCK!

    I do not have the entire book in pdf. It is an awkward format to scan because all th papers fold out into big plans.If you tell me which parts you need I will scan the plans with the corresponding list.
