Machine Overview
This 1999 LEADWELL product Vertical Machining Center is in good working order. The machine's operational history is robust. Although the exact hours of operation are uncertain, rest assured that the center functions as it should, apart from a mechanical issue involving one or more worn 'teeth/keys' in the tool changer. Knowledge of CNC is not needed to understand this issue. Otherwise, the machine has no electrical issues of any sort.
With the machine, you will also get three sizable vices and a substantial inventory of tool holders, perfect for any project you need to take on. An additional benefit is a Stevens sub plate, which provides extra convenience and flexibility in machining tasks.
While there's no immediate pressure to sell, we believe it's time to let go of this machine. It hasn't been used for a month and is simply bigger than what we need in our current operations. We are prioritizing floor space and have recently bought a smaller Haas DT2, which we have successfully transitioned to, with all the programs re-written for the Haas. The LEADWELL Vertical Machining Center, thus, needs a new home.
The machine uses a Fanuc CNC Control—a recognized industry standard—offering a focused control environment for your machining jobs. Notably, an optional upgrade includes a Chip Conveyor, a nice-to-have feature for managing the disposal of waste during operations.
This 1999 LEADWELL Vertical Machining Center is a simple, straight-forward workhorse, ready and capable to help in your next big project. No flowery words, just the facts you need to make your purchasing decision. Thank you for considering our sale and feel free to reach out for additional details or to arrange a visit to see the machine in action.
