The ? would always be Y. I havent worked on these for a while, but generally, axes stay the same when shifting between lathe and mill on mazaks, but geometry switches between diametral/radial.
That is correct. The ones i have worked on are mostly newer ones and have straight X and Y axis. Do you have the manuals for it? All the geometry should be specified there. What year is it?
Sadly not. At least so far. But i saw it in motion and for Y both axis where moving. Also when i looked behind the work envelope where the column is traveling i could see the y and x at an angle ( i assume 60° between them). You can see it even a little bit on the picture if the ATC I've posted ealier.
But concluding i dont need to switch the kinematics between Mill and Lathe. That makes things easier. Its year 1998 Integrex 200Y
I will be back at work in a few weeks, and i can look up the manuals for it then. These older ones can be tricky to find digitally, but sometimes one gets lucky.
