Dmg Phase 1 Paca Manual Lists Options

Then they switched away from Ellison and went to really direct, no reps (I guess.) That all went down in less than 10 years.

You can PM me after Tuesday and I can get you in touch with the owners.

Thank you. Enjoy the holiday.

Think about it, any original Mori Seiki machine was considered one of the best-in-class, and known for robustness and rock-solid reliability.

Dr. Mori should have been satisfied with what he had, he let his ego and the fact that Mazak sold more machines every year do him in.

ToolCat.

Sure the thing can go a zillion miles an hour taking dainty little cuts.

But it cant rough out a hunk of stainless the way the traditional Mori could.

At that time I was shopping a two spindle 20 pallet cell with 400mm pallet size.

Though the machine spec was good (NH4000DCG) and the price fine, they totally dicked up the cell control demo which lost them the project.

The DMU is a truly amazing thing, but about 10 years on there arose an issue they were never able to fix (full speed move on b-axis errors out) - even after they comped me the tech time, I was still out 10s of K for a failed attempt at a repair - I did get a nicer pendant in there though.

I have changed my posts to never issue an FMAX B-axis move, and its OK.

Why couldnt they fix this, in spite of swapping a lot of parts I suppose in part because they sell Heidenhain (this one), Siemens, Fanuc, and whatever else Celos might be laid over.

Dmg Phase 1 Paca Manual Lists Options

The manual lists options for some 15 different spindles - which are hard to tell apart.

The laser toolsetter has failed, and Ive been slow to address it, because their service org has been a pain, maybe I should call Blum direct I suspect its just the diode has failed.

Always has been. The CTX ECO had a manual that flat out told lies (claiming it used one set of G-codes when the machine uses another), and no document anywhere that explained how to manually control the live tool functions.

I sold that machine cheap in Jan and have missed it for exactly 0 seconds.

Somebody who knows Siemens well, or wants to use the conversational to set up some long batch run (it was good at that) will get a great value.

So, is it a machine and configuration that DMG-Mori make in some quantity Any two of them the same Somewhat common in the experience of the local support staff Might be the most awesome machine in the world.

Or not. On the other hand, Ill note Ive seen zillons of complaints over the years about various issues on various machines that my DMU 60 just does not have.

It does not leak.

The chip conveyer generally works quite well, and certainly better than many Ive seen described.

The Heidenhain has 1st rate notions of tool tables, offsets, and so forth.

And a nice file system.

This is all in a 2006 build 2007 delivered machine - my 2020 VF5 is in some ways still behind.

Though the Haas pendant is in many ways nicer than the HH pendant - never thought that would come to pass.) I guess the other thing Id wonder about is what will change next In 2006 when I bought the DMU, DMG was selling through reps.
