Hi all,
We have found that the stops on our Schaublin 150 do not repeat very well. Typically we set the stops for screw cutting up to a shoulder. It will be fine for a few cuts then over shoot by 1mm or so. We have learned to make the run out groove extra wide when threading on the 150! This is never a problem on our Schaublin 125 which always stops within 0.1mm. (125 is definately a nicer machine to use all round in my opinion)
150 uses limit switches which contact with ramps to stop the machine.
125 uses a collar clamp which you position on one of the shafts, it gets pushed by a ground steel dog. This is a very positive and reliable method compared to the ramp method on the 150.
Has anyone had this problem on their Schaublin 150? I would really like to fix this problem.
Oh, just a quick warning about the 150. One of my guys threw a job out of the chuck, the job hit the rapid lever and whammo! Carbide tool plunged into hard jaws!
