I have a Makino EC3025 Wire M/C. The general condition of the machine is dirty and messy, not a lot of maintence done.
The cables to the lower head, Upper head and clamping frame all are Multi cored flat ribbon cables. All are hard, Brittle and some cores are broken.
These cables are not easy to get in Australia. The joints or terminations also do not look so good.
Can I replace the Flat ribbon cables with a standard copper insulated cable?
Why would Makino have used flat ribbon when normal stuff (Cheaper) is available
