Hi Guys,
I have a brand new VC-500C showing up on Friday. I've been asking Mazak for over a month now how the chip tray slides out. I didn't order the chip conveyor, so being able to fully pull out the pan is a requirement for me.
The sales person indicated that the pan pulls out the front. But the machine drawing shows wheels that make it look like it comes out the left side of the machine.
If anybody has a modern vintage VC-500C, I would be most grateful if you could tell me which way the pan goes and how much clearance I need to get it all of the way out. Shop space is tight for me and this will make a big difference in how I locate and orientate the machine. We are literally moving every machine in the shop to make room!
Thanks,
-Jim
