New To Me Supermax

Ah ! It looks much better now. Man I would hate waiting for somthing to make chips.
 
Hi all , tech is getting a home , I'll finish it up today , and run power to it . Planning on Forward-reverse- stop-start switches on left side with teco on right behind plexi door and small fan w/ filter in bottom
Any one see issues with this set up ?.
Thanks

Looks like it should work fine. Looking forward to seeing it running.
 
Nice mill. What issues are you having with the drawbar? I am assuming reaching it due to the mill's height?

Solution, fabricate a power drawbar. That was the first mod I did to my mill and have no regrets, love it.

Mike.
 
Beware of tec support that can't tell you where to hook up incoming power. I got this teco from a place with clueless tec support FM . After an hour and a half they called back and said ( L1&n get 110 green to ground) n=L3
Has most of US. Ben hit by dumb bomb , I hope it's rite , smoke test later, anger makes me tired, nap time:eek:.
 
Mike , when mill head was inverted from transport draw bar was easier to get to. :)
 
I use a Teco on my mill/drill. Works good - note that the VFD has to drive the motor directly. It cannot drive through the controls. You'll plumb the controls off the VFD control ports and with programming. In case that hasn't already been discussed. I ran 240V to the VFD for conversion to 3 phase.

Left side - motor power, right side machine controls

I like the head the way it was - you could machine parts while standing up straight instead of bending over to look under that big thing. ;)
 
image.jpg image.jpg Hi all , after a couple days of fighting with technical support,I think I've got it !.
I'ed call them back if I wanted to bake a cake or cookies , I'm sure they knew how to do that.
Any how mill is running , haven't tried any heavy cuts in steal yet but seems good with aluminum.
Need to get the rite lubricants and some other things , making wood table covers , Y way cover , get air to kool mist and air nozzle, here are some pics one of machine , the other pic is some mills I think , can someone tell what they are for ? The ends aren't broke , I have a bunch of sharp ones. I have other regular mills but these are kinda strange to me.
Thanks
Derrick
Ps. I'll keep Kennedy door closed when Mach is working , kinda tight on space
 
Ordered way protectors, parallels, roughing end mills, z caliper holder, Enco free shipping till 7-6 .
I'm out of town rite now but in a couple days I'll get after it. :chunky:
