Hello everyone, welcome to At-Man Unlimited.
We are pleased to announce the product review of the new Calmotion 527F replacement controller for Fadal CNC machines. This is the second video in a series that will review the controller. In this video we will install the controller.
At-Man Unlimited is not being compensated in any way for this review. I would like to thank Calmotion for providing a demo controller for us to test. The demo controller will be returned to Calmotion at the completion of the testing.

It's been 3 years, it's almost time for another "welcome back" video.

I really miss your videos. There's so much more about Fadal's to make videos on and who other than you to make them..

Hey glad to see you back! That's a great way to breath new life in an older machine, can't wait to see the review. A quick skim of the manual looks to be quite an upgrade. I have a sneaking suspicion this will become a permanent

[phillip]

Thank you for the video Tim! I’m very interested in learning more about this upgrade.

[shemnegahdar]

Hey Tim, it's been long time, hope you and yours all right.

[advil]

Still have you subscribed. Hope you manage a comeback one of these days.

Where did you go? This is a great site chocked full of honest experiences and valuable information. Are you going to continue or is this site dead? If it is, that is a shame, and thanks so much for sharing. However, I am hoping that this journey will continue !

Hola que tal tengo una duda no sé si me pudiera alludar en mis CNC fadal no e podido transferir correctamente las líneas que envío son correctas pero cuando el buf se llena me deja de transferir y el cimco sigue con la transferencia

Tim, not sure if your still around a few months ago I bought a 2002 VMC-15XT and recently got it under power. I’m can’t stand the interface I’ve been thinking about doing a controller upgrade to something modern update with NXGEN. I’m new to CNC’s and I primarily use fusion 360. What are your thoughts ? My idea is it would speed up my workflow and solve issues I don’t know that I have right now

[allanholm]

Hello and thank you for your fantastic videos about Fadel If you still have the guts for it could you make a movie how to set up the fourth /4 axle on a vmc 15.

[salvadordiaz]

Hello, replace the interface card and the problem eliminated my doubt is if I replace the input integrated there is a possibility of rescuing the card

[piotrsobczyk]

Hello Mr Atman i buy A fadal machine few day's ago. But The machine have one problem error 10 this is A spindle problem. Did you ever have this problem ?

[RJMachine]

You did great on all the videos. I wish you would make more of them. Which filters did you use for your spindle motor? I need to add some to mine as well!

[brettmyers]

i have some issue with my 4020 the X axis jumps when I go to jog my machine. any Idea what is wrong with it.

[salvadordiaz]

GOOD NIGHT IN ADVANCE I THANK YOU AND HAPPY FOR YOUR VIDEOS I WANT TO ASK YOU A QUESTION WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT I CANNOT TRANSFER DNC AT ONCE IF I COULD BUT MY PC WAS DAMAGED AND WHEN I REPLACED IT I NO LONGER COMMUNICATE IF I TRANSFERRED IT TO THE MEMORY CORRECTLY BUT IN DNC ONLY SATURE THE BUF REACHES ITS LIMIT AND THE PC WILL NEVER SEND AN ERROR BUT IT DOES NOT STOP TRANSMITTING

[scienceaddict]

approximately what sort of price is this entire set? I looked at Calmotion website, and they didn't have a full kit listed anywhere.

[nigelpowles]

I just googled the Calmotion products, the cost of the conversion in Aussie dollars is almost the cost of Fadal 4020 im looking at $6000USD is like $10, 000AUD

[seimela]

DO THEY MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS FOR A FANUC OLD SYSTEMS ?

[siemon]

Havent seen a video from you in a while, you alright?

[joannepfeiffer]
