I am having a little discussion with the company that sold me my newest CNC lathe ( 8" chuck , 500mm turning length) regarding the taper the machine turns.
After it was installed and leveled (by them )it turned 8my taper in 120mm. (3 tenths in 4,72").
I find the taper to be unacceptable due to a number of reasons, not least because the factory sheet had the taper at 1my in 120mm.
My question is: what are the factory tolerances for the various high-end lathe manufacturers when it comes to allowable taper ?
