Sir. I have questions. How to set zero home atc at moriseikei NV-5000

Superb video.well done and thanks.

"Like our Southern border" 🤣🤣🤣

Much better than Part 1. . Parts and Support.. Simple always helps.. Able to work on it yourself is also at the top of my list, I hate people touching my stuff.. Actually, they can touch it all they want, but the only one I trust to fix it right is me. Also, I live in the middle of nowhere, and getting a tech is going to be a minimum of $900 just in travel time, and more likely $1800 before a wrench is turned or a diagnosis is even started. . Kind of like buying a vehicle (daily driver, not the toys). Keep it simple.. Especially if you are going older.. Keep it to machines that they made a LOT of. If you buy some oddball that they only made 8 of 30 years ago, you are down a stinky muddy creek without a paddle.. I know the saying is that you are UP the creek, but if you are UP the creek, you can just float back down, it makes no sense.

Different rules for different people. Here is what I did. first I bought an old FADAL 1980 or so with a budget of less than 10k and I pulled out all wires and motors. replaced them with 1.5kw ac servomotors from SZGH in china and I controlled them with MACH-4 It's an open source software and can do anything that your cnc can with the acceptation that windows sucks in a cnc. and yes it made me profit and in 15 months I bought a HAAS VF5 with a budget of $80k

Hey! He didn’t list my machines as “don’t buy.” Is what I would have said half way through his list.

A lot of important details left out.

Hi, why you haven't spoken about alarm 163?! Like 161 and 162?

I have a 99 Hurco Hawk that's been running great for several years. Old isn't necessarily bad. Get what you can afford and enjoy it.

I just find where the error comes from in the ladder diagram 🤣

Where did you go? The second question is my tool turret is wobbling a lot when it cuts it so bad I cant cut anything on it. Do i repair it or scrap it? Is it a rigid issue?

Really thanks for sharing this with us!!!🥰

Hi Man! I changed my way cowers. After about 5-6 weeks start having a coolant in bottle for old oil behind machine any ? Help with that ? Thanks Jan

I need to repair the Y-axis ball screw assembly on a Haas TM1P from 2010. You don't seem to have the parts, so where is it best to source from if not Haas themselves?

When you want to buy an old CNC machine.. first look if you can either find Replacement parts, or if it is possible to retrofit it! I used to work on an old Fadal, yes.. it wasn't as straight forward to operate as modern machines, but!, I downloaded al the manuals i could find, and figured it all out.. Turned out, when you find out how to run it, it can be a fine machine, old, but fine!.. I bought an EMCOturn 120 lathe a while back, machine is 32 years old, but since it spent most of its years in a school, it didn't see much action, as it was, so i was told by a mechanic who knew this machine, too complicated for the students, so it spent most of its time turning brass and aluminium chess pieces on open days at that school.. i got all the manuals, fired it up, and a year later it paid me way more than it cost me, I now have plans to retrofit it, so i can automate it easily, with a bar feeder, giving me "light's out production possibilities..

I love it. Great information.

Hi, Good Video, would you be able to make a video on how to install drivers into a PC104 Board on a EC400 Haas ?

Yea you shouldn’t be machining if you are staying away from those older machines. I have a fadal15 and old mori seiki cl20. Tolerances were 3 tenth’s on mori and 3thou on fadal. Retrofitted both and kept them running at today’s demands using xometry to put them to use. If you get a deal, take it. You will learn a lot about machining. Not just how to push buttons. These older machines allow entry level machinists opening a new show to have great rigidity at a great price.

helped me alot with cleaning a FADAL, had to deal with interior springs that connected the two separate X covers

Wish I just bought a new manual mill high quality and an engine lathe now really crap

Also replaced rubber anti vibration bushings for motor mount s they desintigrated

Bought a 2008 tm3 haas from a machine action selling company gosh never been cleaned had to have Setco rebuild spindle in every way possible I'm wondering if I should buy a new belt old one seems ok it's in my basement a 2006 tl1 also cleaner but I need help tramming the spindle to the table I'm willing to buy a 10 x6 x1 granite square to check x to y and those to z first East tn here so u take on jobs for good pay I have a starrett no 199 master level if so hola I'll pay should be a one time thing

Clearly this one has not heard of dripfeed and other retrofits that make RS-232based CNCs usable. Speed might not be up there with new purchase modern machines, but if it can run and can CNC, it’s Better than literally nothing at all.

I hate this video :(

Thanks for the explanation. Currently have a triple crown situation (plugged lines, caused a clogged pump, which blew the relay fuses)… currently have a bridgeport style hand pump on the CNC to flush the lines out 😁🔪

Oh man, if I was allowed to video at work I could show you some old old stuff.

Strange issue. 2 of my machines will stop and on the screen it will say "waiting". Most of the time I hit reset and the machines will run fine. I'm running 2 Haas mills on a Phase Perfect phase converter. Any ideas?

😂😂😂😂 Southern Bleep!

It keeps going out of orient everytime i set it. What can i look out for?

You need more experience to have this kind of opinion . Tons of these machines in our system. BUT I do agree that the MFG that are out of business i.e. Hitachi Seiki , Cincinatti, but all the Fadal still have good support . His statement is to broad in my opinion

We have a FEMCO V-12 49" VTL. Tried taking off the bottom plate of the tool holder to get to the spring and mass chuck. I can only get it to drop about 1/4" not sure what holding it up. Used a jack and a pc of wood while loosening the blots , but it won't release. Any helpful tips to get it off to see if the springs need to be replaced?

i'm in school for industrial maintenance right now and think cnc machines are fascinating, i want to get into cnc repair badly but it's such a niche trade and it's been really hard to find resources. felt like finding buried treasure coming across your channel! please don't ever apologize for being long-winded, in fact i would love some more in-depth "explain it like i'm five" videos lol. it's helpful for newbies like me!

This is how I feel about Fadals

8:58, keep the large top mechanical button pressed down and the LED will remain green

Nicely done, man! Thanks for taking the time and walking thru the process! I was able to successfully establish a good handshake with a usb to db25 interface.

Hey buddy, I'm working for a shop with old 25 pin rs 232 ports. I,'m going to buy an old pc to download and upload programs. I'm not a pc guru but can run a pc. What do I buy as far as an old pc? Serial port, parallel port, etc. 9 pin or 25? Thanks for consideration. Herb

Very encouraging video!

I too have made some really cool products that I thought every one is going to want this, and didn't! Luckily I didn't go into debt buying machinery.

Look forward to the DNC to the machine video, can you restart to feed DNC program from the computer mid stream?

Thank you for posting this!

Thanks again ua-cam.com/users/shortsmY6f79_oFgg?si=WL3iCrHJXyZ07Npu

Thank you king, straight to the point 👑

My vf-0e tried to delete itself. Thanks to cnc repairman I was able to get tools, parts and education to fix that machine and make many chips. Just bought some parts to fix the way covers.

I sheared the back of the switch off. Then someone brought me a new switch and I sheared that one too. I think I'm getting good at this shearing business. I now have a special button.

This is also necessary if your drilling and alarm on high Z thrust.
