Hi
We have just recently put in a Mazak QT20N, Nice machine and runs well, really pleased with it on the first couple of jobs it did (Basic OD and ID turning). However using a 35mm U drill today and basicly wrote it off due to it being off center (2mm below). Worried that the turret might be off in some way, Is there a set offset for drills in the X axis? Can't find one in any documentation I have (I used an offset that was all ready in the machine) I had a lot of trouble clocking up the OD tool holders afterwards? What is the best method of checking everything is in line, where to start?
With regards
Will
