I spoke to a service tech today and he passed on some interesting info. He said, that one of his techs was ordering a pump from Mazak and found out that if you have not made a part order for a machine (every serial number) in the last year you must now pay a $3000.00 set-up fee to Mazak per machine that meets this one year time period.
I was floored by this and also mad. I personally have 10 Mazaks. Thus, if I have to order a special O-ring that its gonna cost be $3K. No way!
I personally haven't confirmed this with Mazak, but feel the source is pretty reliable.
I invite any input if anyone has confirmed this or not.
Regards
