A guy is trying to offload this machine about a 92 mod from memory. He knows nothing about the machine other than it works. It is pretty cheap, from what I have read they seem quite solid but what should I be looking for if I go look at this thing?
It has the seicos ly (?) control. What is this control like? I know fanuc controls, does this control run on fanuc style g code?
Since they are out of business what are parts like to get?
Are they a reliable machine that hold good tolerance and repeatibility? If it can hold .01mm for what I do that's plenty good enough
Looking at the specs they seem very fast in tool change and rapids (20 & 24m/min) given there age. Must have been mind blowing when they were first released
