My machine project is on hold for now, unfortunately I ended up spending a bunch of $$ moving
last month and rent is already due for November so I need some catch up time.

Taking a lot longer then I wanted too, I was hoping to have it running by now but $$ is always a problem.

Any updates, sspeed? There's a VF1 and a VF3 with no controls up for sale locally for pretty cheap..

No progress lately, was having a hard time tuning the amplifiers to the existing HAAS dc servo motors, so I am going to replace all axis with
new digital AC servos but project is on hold for a while, renting this shop I have is costing too much and I am now trying to
round up some money to build a garage at my own place so I can move everything home.

After a few years I will be getting back to work on the project soon..

Hopefully will be closing on a house here in a couple weeks and will have a nice hangar sized workshop to set up in...

Hi,
Any update on this project? I have a VF3 (1994) and the mocon make some trouble, eventually I will be forced to make a retrofit like solution.. I hope somehow that I will be able to keep as much as possible from original hardware. I need just the computer part to be replaced..

there are "new" haas Vf3 boards all over you can simply replace the main board if you trouble
also haas provides some nice upgreats for real low money around 800USD
it is money ok but what you get is more then you can expect around 120 suroutines
on mashine part generation ....
call a dealer around you
