Hello everyone!
I'm a hobby machinist from Finland, on my 4th decade already. Got some background in mechanical engineering studies but ended up in IT sector and am currently working as a CIO. Now I'm getting back to machining and I've been busy for the past year setting up a little hobby shop in my garage. My latest acquisition is a Maho MH600E which I bought as scrap from another hobbyist. I intend to refit the machine with a modern 5-axis Delta controller and servos, and see where that project takes me.
I will make a thread of the refit, but here are some specs of the machine, and also some pictures for starters:
- Maho MH600E (gray / late model)
- 20 slot hydraulic ATC
- 5,5kW Indramat spindle motor (2-speed gearbox)
- fixed table
- mechanical condition: fair to good
- missing: servos, servo drivers, spindle driver, controller, command panel
I bet I'll be having lots of fun re-implementing the ATC functionality...
