We have a couple of VMC 20's at work and need a cover for the tool setters. They are getting gunked up from coolant and swarf. Had to take one apart today and clean, to get it to work. Someone made a couple of covers but they don't seem to work real well. These are basically SS boxes setting over the setters.
Just looking around to see what else is being used.

What are you guys using to cover these up with?

Thanks for any ideas

VMC 20... you mean FJV 20? or VQC 20??
Anyway... we do what you do.... make our own to replace them or buy them from Mazak.

The best way I've found to not get chips where you don't want it is to not run the machine. Unfortunately, that doesn't make much money...
 
OOPS..........Thats VTC 20's (I think).
Didn't realize Mazak had covers, will be doing some checking on that one.
Thanks psychomill!
