CNC fail. My used VMC CNC Mill finally had a show stopping issue. Developed an air leak that my air compressor did not like or care to keep up with. Some pneumatics troubleshooting was required. Checked air lines, solenoid and ended up with blow-by air thru the carousel air cylinder

Just a quick video of testing going from CAM software to a DNC controller (USB Stick) to the mill (Fanuc OM).

After a late night, I resolved the automatic tool changer issue and it’s working as it should now. Back to cutting chips.

Installation of an American Rotary AD-20 Phase Converter for my VMC CNC Mill upgrade.

Long term review of the G4003 Lathe and just a lazy day in the shop. Also quick bonus footage of swinging a 3617 mill around.
