wadkin ux2lc/c3 with bosh cc100 controller

[george uk]

yes thats what i was thinking, worth a punt at the right offer price, its a bit of a job to service, and costly, but worth a crack at the right price. I just need to check that its not bent to badly, I have wrote off the spindle because i can buy one and a vdf, cheeper than i can service that one. I would be happy if the servos and drives work, meaning i only had to replace the controller.

but will see tomorrow,

The machine was allegedly working prior to removal so why would the screws be likely to be bent?. If there is nothing wrong with the controller why change it? I understand that these machines were quite robust and that many are still in use. I recently bought an old SCM 120 on ebay now and it is now working well. The spindle in that machine will be of a far better quality than any replacement would be, and the machine may well have a tool change system. If you buy the machine my advice would be to get it home (workshop?) and see just what you have got. You may well be in for a pleasant suprise-I hope so anyway. Transport is likely to be quite expensive, the SCM cost about 1k to bring from the south coast to Bourne Lincolnshire, But I had quotes up to twice that. Enjoy your day tomorrow-good haggling. G.
