Thread: BZT - A Poor Quality Machine

We bought a BZT PFL-3 in my day job.
We have the machine less than 6 months and it has been a solid nightmare
1. The EStop has not worked since day 1 - Contacted BZt and they just disabled it
2. After 2 months of little use the Axes started stalling randomly - Contacted BZT and they said the machine needs new ballscrews and motors. They sent new ballscrews and motors and charged almost €400 + Shipping. Fitted them and NO FIX. the machine still stalls when on the rapid movement.
3. The spindle just stopped turning on also. M3 does nothing.
For the total cost of almost €5000 take my advice and do not buy BZT. I have contacted them and no replies. This is not my own machine but belongs to the company I work for. I am trying to get it working. I will post a video of the problem later. Ballscrews are ISEL, drivers are cheapo Chinese make and home switches are Hartmann.
At this stage I just want to send it back to them and get our money back however I doubt we will ever see the money again!
