    4th axis on VK45-2

    Good day,

    can anyone tell me what do i need to use a 4th axis on my machine? In terms of controllers. Are there any problems in initializing with the controller? Do i need to change the main transformer (i use 380v connection)?

    Hello,
    whats the control on the VK? Its usually pretty easy to add if you know your way around wiring diagrams and the control.

    All machines built by Hitachi Seiki were 208vac. That machine requires a minimum of 22 KVA transformer for a VK45-2 machine.And the 4th axis on your machine is the spindle.
