We recently purchased a Hitachi lathe. We understand they were bought up by Mori but looking for some sharp individuals on the Hitachis. Possibly a couple people that own them. Ours is a Y axis, sub spindle lathe and will probably prove a bit tricky to program.

We were shorted a couple manuals so we are still trying to put the pieces together. I understand there was a guy that posted here a bunch that is a former Hitachi tech. I tried to contact him with no reply. Unfortunate because he is from our city and seemed very sharp.


Any help including links or references for great Hitachi/Seicos help would really be appreciated.
