Low ceilings---High Standards. Seth Madore Liberty Machine, Inc. has an incredible story. After working for a top-notch facility for 8 years, Seth gradually took steps to have a shop of his own. What do you do when you buy a DMG Mori DuraVertical 5100 and you don't have room? You build around it! Don't be fooled by this unsuspecting 995 sq ft space. Liberty Machine, Inc. is producing some of the highest quality parts with extremely thorough inspection processes. INSPIRING!

@brytonpinkstaff3528 6 лет назад

REALLY enjoying all the shop tours lately, this one in particular. Just goes to show that you don't need a 5,000 sq/ft building to make parts efficiently, espically to us small guys wanting to start our own shops soon, kind of reminds me of when you started and the bootstrapper mentality. Great work John, keep up the great work!!

@paolopappalardo9976 4 года назад

It allways depends on the volume. If you have the work you can start a farm. These machines are too expensive to collect dust.

@kisspeteristvan 6 лет назад

This is how you make consistetly good parts . Every minute detail matters . Especially true on multiple op parts with tolerances between different planes . Great work man .

@johnm2369 5 лет назад

loved that one. My aerospace shop supports the guy down the street to an extreme degree. But he's reliable and does great fixtures for them and takes huge amounts of time of processes. Hes a millionaire now and left because they wouldn't give him an extra buck an hour. I like he knew his capability. Would love to pick his and that guys brain. Probably from an aptitude standpoint one of the hardest things to do as an individual and make it happen. Also liked when he said his 12 year old could do it. Management where i work seems to bet on the wrong horse on a consistent basis. but then again the guy down the street that helps them is coming up. Interested to see what it becomes years down the road. thanks JSM..

@benlonghair 6 лет назад

John... this is great. The place I just got a job at (because of you, abom, the Keiths, and others I'm forgetting) started in the 80s in a chicken coop. Thanks for all the work you do putting together these videos.

@bcbloc02 6 лет назад

Building the building around the machine seems a lot easier than what I did. LOL I sure do love my bridge crane, heated slab and huge doors though so It was still totally worth it.

@jaewonhwang3716 6 лет назад

Just out of curiosity, what does the heated slab do?

@stuarthardy4626 6 лет назад

jaewon hwang it keeps his feet nice and warm

@bcbloc02 6 лет назад

I think it helps with having a more stable thermal mass that keeps the machines more accurate too.

@bcbloc02 4 года назад

MrKalashnik0va Probably not so much just a plain cold climate thing as it is a climate where temps change a lot day to day. We often get 40-50 Deg temp swings here and that bows stuff like a pretzel

@repalmore 6 лет назад

I would love tours of shops like this. Seems like most of your viewers are starters or star ups or new to business etc. This way we can see what pains and benefits there are to having a machine shop start in your garage. Very much like the way you started.

@robinnuub 3 года назад

Seeing the guy using the Manual CMM was a wow moment for me. Used to measure with a big brown and sharpe with the joystick and PCDMIS and all and still fucks up the probe. I cannot imagine me using this. I'd probably end up destroying a fuck ton of stylus 🤣. Man your mindset is inspiring! More power to your shop! I want my own shop too!!!😥😅 One thing I'd do different tho, I'd eliminate the pullstuds problem and imma go Hollow tapered shank. I'm guessing in a few years, HSK would catch up in terms of availability variety and price and those things are very robust 😁

@makestuffwithkids989 6 лет назад

@ScottMoyse 6 лет назад

Seth Madore thanks heaps. Very interesting indeed. Especially your insight regarding the mori vs kitty

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

I cannot say enough good things about the DuraVertical. I'm 100% certain that this machine will be a top performer in my shop for at least a decade or more. Shop I came from had a couple '05 models that NEVER had issues. All day long, holding tolerance and finish. The Kitty..not gonna lie, there have been issues. Nothing "death sentence", but still. Switches failing in 6 months, crappy control that needed a couple upgrades to become somewhat useful, chip conveyor that gets jammed very easy (need to run it often) coolant nozzles that didn't even adjust far enough to hit a standard tool (had to add a Spider Cool). Still a good, accurate and fast machine, but falls short when comparing it to the Mori.

@lpfreak1708 5 лет назад

This is my dream job man. I work in aerospace/nuclear machining and I would love nothing more than to have a couple of big boy machines in my garage making aerospace parts.

@Andrewlang90 6 лет назад

I watched a greenhorn put a tool in an ER32 collet, brand new mind you. He went to measure it with the touch sensor in a VF2, and the tool itself exploded. It was a brand new E/M, and it came with multiple micro fractures. Oddest thing I’ve ever seen. Cool shop, wish I had it at home.

@rowandunn2403 6 лет назад

i would love to have something of that caliber but i still love my bored out klx250s because it is light and maneuverable in sketchy terrain

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Ha! That's exactly what I had before the F800! I got tired of feeling like I was sitting on a 2x4 for road trips. Seeing as I favored pavement more (for now) I sold the KLX for what I paid for it and stepped into the 800 for a very fair price

@rowandunn2403 6 лет назад

looks like a great bike but i,m fixing up a ktm rsx400 to supermoto and that will be my street bike

@giuliobuccini208 6 лет назад

@martinkroutil 6 лет назад

Amazing shop. Can someone explained to me that tap method they mentioned in video to indicate tool runout in er collet please. I always batteling with runout on my VF-2.

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Martin Kroutil bring the needle of a tenths indicator to the tip of the flute. By hand, rotate the spindle in reverse. Find the high flute. Back indicator away. Place finger behind tool so as not to shock it. Tap directly on the collet nut with a small piece of brass or copper. Indicate again, repeat as needed

@martinkroutil 6 лет назад

Thank you so much sir. Do i fully tighten collet before that taping and indicating or i tight collet lightly and after indicating i tight collet to specs?

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Tighten as if you were going to run it. Sometimes when the runout cannot be chased out with this method, I try a different collet/holder combination.

@Mosio64 6 лет назад

@mattcurry29 6 лет назад

@gredangeo 6 лет назад

One of the principle drawbacks with the 5100 is that I've seen, is that the clearance between the table to the door is quite limited, and that's mostly because the controller is recessed into the machine. Seems unecessary. It visibly looks like you can have some additional vice overhang or something outside that table boundary. But the splash guard of the door knocks into it. The memory also sucks. Only 500KB. Or maybe the company I work for is just cheap, and bought no other options. Still though. 500KB is abysmal for an offering for a machine that pushes 150 Grand around there I think.

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Yep, my complaints about the machine are ergonomics related and that's it. I do have the DNC server on my machine, so I do have a Gig of space if needed.

@Eggsr2bcrushed 6 лет назад

The operator has to stand in front of the machine so there is no reason to "save space" but recessing the controller. That is probably the stupidest thing ever. Put it on an arm and let it rotate around.

@chrisrokz9005 6 лет назад

Agree with gredageo's drawbacks. It gets really tricky when you have to run longer parts on this machine. Management can't budget for the larger NVX7000 60"x30" size. Two DV5100 40"x20"s were bought instead. The added setup time of having to spin larger parts would have paid for the larger NVX in three years alone. Loved running the DV5100. Currently running a Haas VM2, what a Huge Difference. Has anyone run one of the new DMG CMX style machines with the Y axis up top?

@Rimrock300 4 года назад

@BenjaminCarlson1 6 лет назад

Curious about your phase converters - I've (obviously) been considering american rotary - you mention not using rotary and only using digital phase converters... would you mind sharing what you use? Do you have a single converter, or one per machine? Thanks!

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Digital Phase Converters from Phase Technologies. The rot-phase produce more heat and noise, and on top of that, they are less efficient. The digital converters are about 98% efficient, roto is about 80%. Yes, I have one for each machine. Technically, I could run both off of one, but neither company was going to warranty anything if I chose to do that.

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Yeah, great guy until you really get to know him! :D A) I'm in Maine, a state with a poor record of chasing off a lot of young people. Sure, some stick around, but the majority have bought the lie that Maine has no financial future for them B) Currently, no, I'm not looking to hire. As the shop expands and spindles and inspection capacity is added, that will likely change

I don't know that I would trust my optical comparator/profile projector to a tenth like that. Is this a verification or an edge break being present or an actual measurement?

It's good for .0005" verification. Just checking existence of an edge break, and determining if it's in the customer tolerance

@briankostrzewski6287 6 лет назад

I had a manufacturing business that I built and sold 8 years later. About 50 employees and a couple buildings and 24hr stress and it was awesome and it’s still going today without me. From my perspective (and I enjoy making things) you have the dream situation. Keep this place the way you want it and under control. When you get bigger you lose your creative space and everyone breaks your stuff:-). If you ever desire a production shop build that down the street and don’t mix the two. Just saying... I realize nobody asked. Seriously though- nice job and thank you for sharing. I come from automotive roots where it’s so cut throat that you become... I don’t have the guts to invite the world in yet...

@LumaLabs 6 лет назад

You watch this video, and the tragic thing is that DMG Mori has totally trashed their reputation after getting rid of the Dura Vertica 5100. Both of their attempts to replace it have been a fail.

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Greg Koenig haha, we actually talked about that off camera. I'd buy a used Duravertical before the latest version of replacement

@LumaLabs 6 лет назад

Honestly? I would avoid anything DMG Mori these days. Too many DMU 50, CMX-V, MillTap horror stories I've been hearing. Where the DV5100 was in the market is pretty much owned by the Okuma M560V these days. Also, that Kitamura is super nice! Emailed the dealer for Portland... With a 4th axis and a 15k spindle? It would be sweet for aluminum work!

@ScottMoyse 6 лет назад

@katawatenshu 6 лет назад

What is this tap method of indicating being referred to?

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Put tool in holder, tighten collet nut. Place in spindle. Bring the needle of a tenths indicator to the tip of the flute. By hand, rotate the spindle in reverse. Find the high flute. Back indicator away. Place finger behind tool so as not to shock it. Tap directly on the collet nut with a small piece of brass or copper. Indicate again, repeat as needed. Double check up near the collet to make sure runout is still acceptable. Hello longer tool life and better accuracy. I don't often do that for roughing tools. Finish tools almost always get that treatment. When you have a .001" Profile all around a part, you need everything working on your side.

@katawatenshu 6 лет назад

Thanks so much Seth!

@sethmadore4127 6 лет назад

Oh, and one clarification. Small tooling, (anything under .125 (3mm) roughing or finishing, I indicate in. Tool life has a huge impact otherwise

Quarter mill in machines, but I get the sentiment ;) I might build a "real shop"on the property, , but I'm certainly considering all my options. Not sure if I want to grow to that size on my own property, what with additional employees and all. Build an addition big enough for one more machine, I could absorb that. Plus, the space would come in very handy when I move the shop to a larger building. I love wrenching on vehicles and powersports, so it wouldn't be a waste
