    info on older haas vmc

    As mentioned if it was left then it was probably left for a reason, BUT that doesn’t mean it can’t be saved and even if you did spend £5k on it to get a good working machine that would still be a bargain, depends if you are able to do all the fault finding yourself without having to pay a third...

    Mazak QT15n hydraulic oil change

    You will need 40ltrs as I replaced my oil and bought 2 of the 20 litre drums and only had a bit left so around 35 litres is a good guess I couldn’t see any obvious filter so I just changed the oil

    T32-B can you program a drill to do another process as a boring bar

    Thanks for the reply guys, I had a proper look today and YES it is possible, you have to assign a letter prefix to the tool and then add that tool prefix to the tool table So for example I used tool 2, In my tool table I only had tool 2 described as a drill, But I didn’t realise you can add...
