5 Axis Jog-Learn Spinning Lathe Mach3 in action

This is a vidio of a 5 Axis Jog-Learn Spinning Lathe that I designed and built the Conttrol system with Mach3. It has custom Scrrens, Custom Plugin, Macropump, dual function pendant with 2Z-bot MPGs, or you can select a 2 axis jog ball for compound curves, you can run 2 axis at the same time for programming. It records all your moves on all 5 axis. X, Z is standard lathe, A/B is 8 tool turret and angle of attack, Y is the backer wheel for Flanging. The Drives are Automation Direct SureServo, it has 2 BOB's One from CNCBuildingBlocks and one from CNC4PC. Vic Russel of "Russels Metal Spinning" commisioned me for the Control system. The Crew at Russels metal spinning are responsible for the physical/Mechanical machine build, in which they did and excellent job.

If you need a Control system, by all means contact me at S S Systems, LLC
or PoppaBear at the www.Machsupport.com forum site.

indyraza: I just built the control system, The owner and crew of Russels metal spinning built the mechanical machine. I think he estimates he has about 60K in the machine, since it is a "Commercial Grade" prototype. Having built this one, he thinks knowing what he knows now he would build it for about 30K, and that includes labor.

i personally have spun thousands upon thousands of light reflectors on that very machine. Its built like a brick shit house and is just amazing at the prodution i could make with it.

What did that lathe cost you about?
