    Question Help ID this mill

    Help! I picked up this used mill and there are not manufacturer plates anywhere on the body. The controls are blown and will need to be retrofitted.(Anilam Crusaders 2) Can anyone identify this machine?

    Thanks for the response. Still looking for any identifying markings. Even went as far as going to the controller manufacturer to see if they could trace it back. No such luck but they would be glad to upgrade it with new controls. We have moved it into the shop and am proceeding with the retofit. Thanks for the help.

    Look for evidence of country of origin, make of solenoids, pumps, 3ph motors etc.
    If N.American, it looks similar to Cincinatti, or a Gray.

    All of the components, electrical and mechanical appear to be American made. The main spindle motor is by Getty equiped with their drive . The spindle is equipped with quick change for the collis style holder. The servo motors are West Amp ( Reliance Electric). The blown control is by Anilan. The prints that came with the controller place the machine made around 1983. As you suggested the gray paint does look like Cincinatti.
    Thank you for the help.

    It's an old Cincinatti. Drillmaster (or something like that). Anilam had a package to replace the old control and the Drum Style drill stop. Anilam has an update package to replace the old Crusader 2 with their newer control.

    Let me know if you need more info.
