    What are these Doosan coolant gun/washwand/air blow nozzle options?

    Interesting. Definitely have no idea how to do this but I'm getting some preventative maintence done and they are going to take a look and see what they can get set up for me.

    What are these Doosan coolant gun/washwand/air blow nozzle options?

    From watching this thread this seems like a question for @LockNut. How difficult would it be to tie this to a relay on the machine such that an M-code could activate the pump? I'm new to this so I know essentially nothing about how the relays work. I'm hoping I could add a few to my machine to...

    I'm wondering how important an air dryer is. I plan on getting one but will 3-6 months make a difference? Using a Qunicy piston driven 5hp compressor right now.

    New Machine Day - DNM 5700

    It was a nice transition. Original plan was Tormach to learn then VF-2. Build volume per dollar pushed us into the 5700/VF-4 territory.

    New Machine Day - DNM 5700

    What was the price difference moving to the S. Definitely agree on the tormach. Honestly was surprised how much we could do with the machine but we were very limited by the machine travels.

    New Machine Day - DNM 5700

    Took delivery of my first real vertical mill. Been learning on a Tormach 1100Mx for the last 18 months and taking a step up with the DN Solutions (Doosan) DNM 5700. Still probably 2 or 3 weeks from making chips. Waiting on our 3 phase hook up and HVAC install.

    Help Picking First Real CNC Mill

    I'm a design engineer at a aerospace engineering firm that outsources all of our manufacturing. For the last 9 months I've been teaching myself CAM and machining on a Tormach 1100MX. We are now ready to purchase our first real professional mill. There's still plenty of learning left to do as...
