Hello! The machine shop I'm working in has an old Supersonic Enterprise Mark III Milling Machine from 1988. I've scoured the internet and haven't been able to find any information on these machines let alone a manual (which would be the dream).

Does anyone else have a machine like this and/or perhaps a manual?

I only have a picture of the backplate right now but I'll take some more pictures tomorrow of the whole unit

If the machine has no internet presence, why did you not post a pix of
the overall machine ?

the name tag don't do much.

Pics? For a Supersonic Enterprise Mark III? A machine that special needs its own youtube channel, facebook profile, and twitter account.

Also, the OP might want to check the ejection seat before taking heavy cuts.

I think I see a round column, which would mean mill drill, which would mean a locked thread.... maybe a Superdupersonic Mark IV would pass muster here.

Power is listed on the name plate as being 115v single phase....I believe the question has been answered.....

that must be the old model.
EVERONE knows the Enterprise operates at WARP speeds these days. The ship is
definitely 3-phase , which is what MR Scott's Adcock and Shipley combination
machine runs- on the engineering deck.

get with it Laddie.

If you look up Supersonic Enterprise Taiwan you find a real company that seems to make both larger CNC machines and forbidden round column objects that resemble but are not machines.

Yeah! I emailed them up but they don't seem to have any manuals or anything.

Unless you want to discuss that "c" clamp hanging off the base, this will
be locked in a minute....
