Eric is absolutely right. The Haas is a great machine, and they have a few models that will run on single phase power, but it is no where near the machine that...
If you look on the back of the Haas, the molded cables are ours! I built or designed about a 1/4th of them, but our company made all of them. The big (happy...
A 20 pocket tool changer would definitely be nice, but for the $60,000.00 difference in price between a Haas VF2 and a Tormach PCNC1100 I can get along quite...
Greetings to all! I have searched the web and various mailing lists for this information but I can't find much discussion on this. May I know what the...
I suggest you talk direct to Tormach. I live in a 230V single phase country and my Tormach was supplied ready to run without stepdown. I believe and they can...
Has anyone done anything with their old Series II motors and drivers after making the upgrade to Series 3? I would like to use them to make a cnc plasma table...
Hi TK I concur with John - best to check with Tormach. FYI - I've just recently set up a PCNC1100 in NZ (230VAC 50Hz country)& I'm running 230VAC 50Hz direct...
If you keep the main board why not just use the electical diagram to rebuild a 2 axis Tormach, without a spindle? I doubt Tormach will advise you for free but...
Hi John, Stu, Thank you both very much for your replies. I have gone through the manual for the PCNC 770 and the documents on the Tormach website, it seems...
I do not have the Tormach Shuttle Jog Controller but was seriously thinking of getting one as I have heard good things about it. Then I noticed Vistacnc makes...
... I have the Tormach Shuttle Jog Controller on my machine and so far it has worked almost flawlessly. A couple of times, Windows had failed to recognize the...
No I haven't used one of those. I have the Tormach shuttle jog pendant and it works fine. I was a little scared it wouldn't be durable made from plastic,...
... Eric is correct in saying the Tormach Jog Shuttle would be great id it were made of aluminum instead of plastic. If it was aluminum, the XYZ and A could be...
Phil, Never mind. I answered my own question. Drew ... From: tormach1100@yahoogroups.com [mailto:tormach1100@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Drew Keyes Sent:...
The Z-Bot (Tormach) wheel is GREAT. I put a self adhesive rubber "button" on the Z button and do all my set up one handed with out ever taking my eyes off the...
Has anyone used LakeShore 3/8 dia. x 3fl. x 45 deg or 60 deg. helix carbide endmills? Don't know wheather to go with the 45 or 60 deg.helix. Will be cutting...
I meant to comment on the tool retention issue. When you are roughing max out, holding on to carbide endmills with an R8 collet system is an issue. You can try...
In a recent job with 3/8 2 flute 30 degree helix cutter in a sidelocking TTS holder the holder pulled out of the collet by 60thou by the time it had finished...
... For the first job I did on my machine I used a 3/8 inch 3 flute end mill from Data Flute. I made the mistake of trying to take out 5/8 inch in 2 passes...
