Damn! It's a 30x16 table. | | Your right. I just called them and they thought is was 40x20 but it is the VMC40 30x16 small table. Its a spotless machine with laughable low hours. They said it sometimes sat for 10 years without being used. They bought it new in 85. They have 2 tap drivers, Tool holders for the 21 station with every sizes for every end mill up to 1". They want 10K but I'm thinking maybe 5-7 in todays market. Any thoughts? From what I've read a Fadal is a good machine. This has a RS32 port and reads both fadal and Funac formats. So I'm thinking maybe it would be nice as a 3 axis machine or put a manual index plate for the 4th axis index machining.
Since its a VMC40 what are the cost involved in changing to single phase. We have no 3 phase here and would have to pick up a phase converter. I'm told the machine has a 7.5 or 10 Hp motor. |
