CNC MILL 6

by John

Help!

I need a wiring diagram for the Extron mill.

It is a Hafco badged machine, but Hafco (Hare & Forbes) do not have wiring info. The Extron factory in Taiwan has not replied to my emails. Hare & Forbes apparently contacted the factory, and also drew a blank about wiring info.

That is pretty unimpressive. The machine is only 17 years old. In built obsolescence? Just not worth while supporting older machines? If it was a US or European machine there would be no problem getting info. It seems that this Asian factory has a different idea about what constitutes support.

Fortunately I have an expert friend who will, I am confident, be able to work it out.
