1987 Mazak QuickTurn20N Universal - Allin1DC... Maybe

Post by morf-tech »

I started my Centroid journey a few years ago with a Horror Freight mini mill..... that didn't last long so a Precision Matthews PM940 was ordered and converted. That thing works pretty great but I needed moar powa baby. So then we got a 2008 Toyoda BM1200. Mill operations are covered.

About a week or two ago, a 1987 Mazak QuickTurn 20N followed me home. It has an old Mazatrol T2 control that's having issues. The previous previous owner (no, not a typo as the most recent PO let is sit for a year before giving up), I spoke to and I feel confident about the machine itself mechanically. It just had card failures and then would work then it wouldn't. Long story short, he was in a production environment and his love for the machine wasn't enough to get product out the door. He needed the floor space for a younger version without old controller problems.

So, here we are.

I have a copy of the wiring diagram and I'm going through things as I see fit. I spoke with a nice gentleman here in the Houston area who owns or works for Arrow Controls, a Centroid distributor. He hinted at some things I need to investigate.

This machine comes equipped with 0.8KW HD81-12S 0.8KW 151V 6.3A rated servos. The X axis is rated at 2000rpm while the Z axis is rated at 2400 rpm all things else being the same.

The spindle, as best as I could gather from Arrow, should work with the centroid. Who knows?

Anyway, I've attached some pics of my controls cabinet as well as some of the electrical drawings.
