Integrex Posts Any suggestions?

[MLS]

I have read a few topics about Mill/Turn posts and know some of you guys have experience with them.

 

We are looking to purchase one in the near future. Our options are a Mastercam post(which I believe there are a few out there) or an AustinNC post.

 

We have a Mazak Integrex 200 S2Y with a Mazatrol and a Mori Seiki NL 2000 with a MAPS panel(Fanuc??).

 

Anyone have any suggestions of good, bad or ugly?

 

Thanks

Inhouse Solutions, the sponsors of eMastercam.com

have a very good Integrex post.

Crazy Millman can give you more details than me.

He probably knows every line by heart by now

I second Inhouse Solutions for posts. They are very professional to deal with, and the quality of their work speaks for itself. Every Inhouse post I have used has worked fantastic.

IMHO is a very good rock solid post that is proven, tried, trued and tested. More to come later been very busy today just leaving work.

We just bought the In-House solutions post and Brett made some minor modifications for some of my particulars. That post is rock solid. Can support everything you throw at it. Not sure about the Mori Post, but I bet if you call In-House, they probably have one.

On the Mori post, while I was still at Kevlin I purchased it for our Mori NL. Sadly I never got the chance to put it through but I purchased it based on reputation alone.

WOOOO MLS I wouldnt be so hasty I would go with In-House Solutions if I were you.

 

I had had a few posts from Brent over there for some of are customers he does a great JOB.

Well with those 2 choices you can't go wrong. The best thing about the post is the fact it truly supports the Mazatrol side of the machine doe handling the tool offset side of things which IMHO handles the best of any machine I have seen. I can use Mastercam directly and with 99% confidence I get the same thing on the machine. These is always that special or oddball thing I am doing that the Mazatrol needs a swift kick to get right but that is just the quirk of the machine and all of them have them. I guess the biggest thing I really like about the Machine again IMHO is that is really operator friendly and gets the operator involved so when you get a good operator that give a crap about his job it rewards him and rewards the company. Along with that the post handles everything and does it very well and once you get use to what you need post and go and have a nice day.

You may want to consider something from In-House as well

MLS, something that in house is doing for me to make my life easier, which I am sure they would for you as well, is they gave me a time-coded post for the integrex. We are getting our machine in October and the post is set to expire in September, giving me ample time to fiddle around with it.

 

And if the case was wheather your boss wants to spend the big bucks on it, having a trial version is a perfect way to show what it can do.
