You think Fanuc, Siemens, or any other CNC manufacturer is going to do any different?

You can contact Mitsubishi Germany at +49-2102-486-1850 or Mitsubishi US at 1-847-478-2500. They can sell you a drive or repair your drive.

fanuc,siemens,no,hass anilam miltronics centroid would,i fixed my drive for $455 for the local service guy and $180 part,which mitsubishi wouldnt sell to me,i had to buy from china
next new machine i buy will be a hass later this year
in this economy people cant afford $2500.00 to fix or $10,000.00 new,and i would think the machinery dealers cant afford to loose sales like mitsubishi just did,nothing personal just money and business,i need to have fast,affordable service which you cant provide

I just talked with Mitsubishi because your numbers seemed a little off. To get an MDS-A-SVJ-03 repaired would cost you about $550 (flat rate). The repair also comes with a one year warranty. What kind of warranty did you get from the part you received from China or your repair tech?

You beat me to it, I called my contact in Chicago and has yet to get back to me, but your numbers are closer to what I have experienced in the past.
The whole system for an M50L is no more than $12 to $14,000.00, if that now.
A while back, Mitsubishi were dumping last years equipment on Ebay, VFD's were going for 10c on the $ and M50 systems for $7,000.00.
I suspect they got complaints from re-sellers as it seems to have dried up. :

you guys arent reading my post correctly,i said my was a servo pack,the older meldas has all 3 drives in one servo pack,they gave me a price of 9,200 new,2,500 fixed flat rate
when board your machine has i dont know,my facts are straight,ask mitsubishi your self,that isnt the point i was trying to make,they dont want to offer any help or parts on the older machines,maybe yours is newer and your lucky,either way im not buying there products again,and the part from china has a replacement guarantee on it if it doesnt work,which i found odd,since electrical stuff is usually not covered

[SORCHEROR]

you said your single drive was 550 to fix,so at 3 of those thats 1650 but theres more boards in the servo pack so i guess thats why its 2500 for mine,i just wasnt offered any help from mits other than new or fixed,we knew which parts was bad,and had to find one ourselves

[SORCHEROR]

at 550 to fix yours with warranty i would do it,thats reasonable enough
good luck
