Default Re: my tools "98" Mazak

Steve, have you got that Mazak going yet?

I program and run a Mazak Quick Turn 250 MSY. 2 spindles, 12 tools, live tooling, Y-axis too. Mine is a little newer, from early 00's. Has the Nexus controller.

Also run a 700D II 50 taper mill. Big sumbich. Thats an '06 machine with the Matrix controller.

Do you plan on using any CAM programs or are you going to program at the controller? I was floored by how easy the programming was. I had never ran a Mazak a day in my life and was able to figure it out with little training.

Good luck!
