I just bought a GANESH GT-1628 WITH THE SYNTEC EZ-4012-ME control. It comes standard with CSS, Teach and a lot of features that are options on the Southwestern Industries CNC/Manual engine lathes Trax Control. The Ganesh machine comes with the tailstock, coolant pump and work light as standard equipment. The Fagor Control is an available option. A really nice machine. I am using an optional Dorian Quadra Indexable tool Post and an optional 6 jaw scroll chuck. A Programable 4 position tool post is an available option. I attended a Sandvic Presentation at Ganesh Machinery in Chastsworth, CA. last week, bought the machine while I was there after talking to The Owner,Mr. Singh his son Harvinder, the President and his Daughter Preeti. Very Honest, and Friendly Family and the Service Tech, Jorge took the time to show me the features of the machine under power. I just sold my 2007 Hwacheon HI-TEC 200A as I am down sizing my garage machine shop. I looked at the available new CNC/Manual engine Lathes and the Ganesh GT-1628 was just what I needed to replace my 1640 engine lathe and still have a CNC lathe available in the same foot print of the old engine lathe. I am going to sell my 1640 engine lathe and my 1994 Fadal VMC15 with the 4th axis Fadal head. I live in L.A. area if anyone is interested in machines.
