    Okuma OSP700M and Gotek USB emulator

    I have a Okuma Cadet Mate mill, OSP 700M control, and my 3.5" drive crapped out. Bought a flea-bay Gotek USB emulator, the 3 digit one. Got a USB stick formatted in 1.44MB partitions. Still having some issues. Has anybody here done this, and which pins are jumpered? Currently I am jumpered...

    Any thoughts on "digital transactions only" in the years ahead?

    I wrote Kommrade Kinzinger about 6 weeks ago, for the third time. As usual, cricket chirps.

    Will the MOD here just ban the B? He is too stupid to be here... screws up every post that he touches.

    Its 100% self contained. No PC. The system comes with an electrical cabinet, power supply, VFD, servo drives, etc etc.

    Install would be maybe 16 hrs on a bridgeport or clone of standard frame size. That would assume you are installing ball screws on X and Y. Z does not use a ballscrew because it is not counterweighted, so the standard lead screw is fine. No observed backlash. My mill is a 10x50 with box ways...

    The spindle control is ran off a VFD, it is not a servo, so no synchronization for rigid tapping. But I can threadmill, simultaneous 3 axis interpolation.

    I am changing them manually. Its a NMTB 40 with a power drawbar. I just put a M00(H1 - 3/4" HSS SPOT DRILL) for instance, at every tool change. It has 64 tool offsets, so I keep about a dozen tools built at all times, spot drills, face mills, 1/2, 3/4 endmills, chamfer tool, and a drill mill...

    Yes, because I can keep the quill fully retracted, also if Z is on the quill, and you are running a part with tool changes, you are limited to 5" travel in Z. So all of your tools, from shorter facemills to long drills, have to be close to the same length. I have about 20" of Z travel on the...

    It was $12K for 3 axis, with Z on the knee, spindle control, electric oiler, and 4th axis ready. Still manual quill, but I can drill and pocket with the table. That was everything except servo mounts and ball screws, and of course the mill. Servo Automation, its a Fanuc clone that I can switch...

    You are 50 shades of stupid. We already discussed in the steel mill thread that you PM'd somebody else, but your drunk ass cant remember that. And here is the proof that I do have a new CNC. Left a note on it, just for you.

    Yea, I ended up bought a brand new retrofit for my mill. The old one was only twice as good as what B has, wasn't getting the job done. Paid cash, too. B never had one I'm sure, just a bunch of rusty drill presses that are likely too complicated for his simple mind.

    No, your just the guy that lies about everything and makes up stories about your lack of greatness to prove something to yourself. I can be gone for a month, come back, and you are still spewing the same crap. BTW, where are my pics of the CNC you supposedly got for sale? Good grief you must...
