New lathe idea.
« on: April 02, 2014, 04:54:37 PM »
Hi all

I bought a non working Mazak qt 15 lathe.   I was told it is a minor problem, but so far it is still broke.

I know it should be fairly easy (not cheap) to switch it over to Mach.   I have a Mach flame and plasma now, working on a mill also.

So here is my question-

Do you think it is possible to add "live tooling "to the lathe if I convert it to  Mach

Yes its possible, not easy but possible, Mach4 will do it much better and with greater ease.
