I'm interested to see the coupling or whatever to connect from the motor shaft to the sprocket. Jim

Actually have several Milltronics.
Started back in the mid-90's and still have the original machine.
MB20, VM17, RW15, VM2016, ML17, SL10

Have had excellent service out of these machines.
They use "off the shelf" components for the electrical and electronic systems.
The only proprietary component is 1 motion control card.
Factory is always helpful if the need occours.
Interface is really easy to navigate.

Vm16 here and mazak qt10 . I have a milltronics salesman coming Monday on a vm5020 . He quoted me 80k base for that 1. They seem to offer more then haas on the base machine . I guess they replace the vm25 which I'm looking at used . If they're hight is right on the website , it'll fit in my current shop so I still only need to heat 1 building .


Nice work on the B&E so far
