Used Waldrich-Coburg Machines We Buy

Used Waldrich-Coburg machines come to Machine Tool Exchange one at a time, and this hub holds thirty of them, every listing carrying the Waldrich-Coburg nameplate and no other. Twenty-nine distinct models across those thirty rows. Seven file on the gantry and portal side, four under grinding, and the recorded production years run from 1980 to 2012.

What the Waldrich-Coburg Listings Actually Are

Thirty listings sit under this facet and all thirty carry the Waldrich-Coburg nameplate. Nothing else appears. The catalog files them across seven labels: Metal Cutting 16, CNC Gantry and Portal Mills 6, Coburg-CNC Grinding Machines 4, Coburg-CNC Gantry and Portal Mills 1, CNC Vertical Machining Centers 1, CNC Boring Mills 1, and CNC Milling Machines 1. Those seven add to exactly thirty. Two of them describe the same side of the shop, because the catalog carries both a plain gantry and portal bucket and a Coburg-prefixed variant of the same label. Together, gantry and portal work comes to seven of the thirty rather than six. The Metal Cutting bucket at sixteen is a catalog umbrella rather than a machine type, so we read no machine style into those rows. Across the thirty listings there are twenty-nine distinct model strings, and the twenty-four rows recording a build year run from 1980 to 2012.

The 30-Series and the Four Grinding Listings

Seven of the thirty listings lead with 30 in the model string, which makes it the largest family on this hub. It is also the only family whose biggest bucket is grinding. Four of those seven file under Coburg-CNC Grinding Machines and the other three under Metal Cutting, and since the hub carries exactly four grinding listings in total, every grinding row here is a 30-series machine. The strings themselves are 30-10, 30-15 S 2525, 30-10 S 3640, 30-10S, 30-10s2530, 30-10 S 3030, and one listed as a bare 30. We treat that leading number as a filing key and nothing more. Two machines that share it are not the same conversation, since four of the seven sit on the grinding side and three do not. Send the full string off the data plate, spacing and trailing digits included, and we will place the machine correctly before anyone talks about condition.

The FP Machines: 17, 17S and 15S

Nine of the thirty listings lead with 17, 17S or 15S, and most of them carry an FP designation somewhere in the string. The 17 family accounts for four listings, 17S for three, and 15S for two. Two of the single-listing categories on this hub come straight out of that group: the one CNC Vertical Machining Centers row is a 17-family machine, and the one CNC Milling Machines row is a 17S. The rest of the 17 family splits into two Metal Cutting rows and one gantry and portal row, with 17S adding two more under Metal Cutting. Real strings from these rows include 17-10FP250, 17-10 FP 250, 17-10FP180NC, 17-10FP50 NC/SM, 17S-10 FP 225, 17S-10, 17S-10FP225NC, 15S-10, and 15S-10 FPF 300 NC. Note that 17-10FP250 and 17-10 FP 250 are two separate listings differing only in spacing, so send the plate exactly as it reads rather than tidying up the spacing.

MULTITEC, VALUTEC and the Gantry and Portal Side

MULTITEC covers three listings and is the family most concentrated on the large-format side. Two file under CNC Gantry and Portal Mills and the third under the Coburg-prefixed version of that label, so all three sit on the gantry and portal side. The strings are MULTITEC 2500 AP, MULTITEC 2000 AT, and a bare MULTITEC. A fourth row reads MULTITECH 3500 FT, which the catalog treats as its own token, so it sits outside that count of three and we do not fold it in. VALUTEC appears twice, once capitalized and once as Valutec. The 20-series is two rows, both reading 20-10 FP 280, the only model string appearing on two separate listings anywhere on this hub. The 16-series is also two rows, 16 GLS 25-90 and 16 GSL 25-90 / 3 m, with the letter order differing between them. The remaining one-offs read 5-FACE, 5-FACE GANTRY MILL, MILLINGHEAD, and 8V3436.

What Jason Puuri Looks At Before Making an Offer

An evaluation starts with five fields: brand, model, year, condition and control type. Photos speed it up but are not required, and a quote typically comes back in 24 to 48 hours. On this hub the year field is worth a second look: only twenty-four of the thirty listings record one, and six carry no year at all. That is why the data plate and a couple of photos beat tracing a build date through a catalog. A 1980 machine and a 2012 machine are different conversations even when they share a leading number, and this facet covers both ends of that span. Jason Puuri scopes the machine himself rather than running it through a formula, so he wants the plate, the control, and an honest description of how it sits today. If the plate is unreadable or gone, say so and we will work from photographs and any surviving service records.

Selling One Machine or Clearing the Floor

Machine Tool Exchange, an affiliate of Superior Machine Tools, is a direct buyer. Not a broker, not an auction site, not a listing service. We purchase outright: no consignment, no listing fees, no commissions. Payment happens at pickup, not on net-30 terms or after an auction closes. Rigging, disassembly, crating and heavy freight come at no cost to the seller, in all fifty states, because a portal machine does not leave on a forklift. Condition is not a gate. Running in production, sitting idle, or partway through a teardown all still get an offer. Worn ways, servo faults or missing tooling do not stop one. Our gantry mill sell page names Cincinnati, SNK, Zimmermann, Zayer, Correa and Fooke as the builders we commonly buy, and it covers any brand, any condition, any quantity, so a Waldrich-Coburg does not need to appear on that short list. One machine or a full facility works the same, one quote and one pickup schedule, and on a mixed floor we buy Mazak, Haas, Okuma, Doosan, DMG MORI, Toshiba and Makino too.

Common questions

How do I sell a used Waldrich-Coburg machine?

Send the details through the offer form or by phone. A quote typically comes back in 24 to 48 hours. Accept and we handle teardown, rigging and freight, then pay at pickup.

What details do you need to quote a Waldrich-Coburg?

Brand, model, year, condition and control type. Photos help but are not required. Photograph the data plate too: six of the thirty listings record no year and the strings vary in spacing.

Do you buy Waldrich portal and gantry mills?

Yes. Our gantry mill sell page buys gantry and bridge type machining centers of all brands, sizes and configurations. It names Cincinnati, SNK, Zimmermann, Zayer, Correa and Fooke as brands we commonly buy; Waldrich is not on that short list and does not need to be. Seven of the thirty listings here are gantry and portal work.

Do you buy Waldrich-Coburg grinding machines as well as mills?

Yes. Our grinder sell page covers any brand, any condition, any quantity, on the same three-step process as the mill side. Four of the thirty listings file under Coburg-CNC Grinding Machines, all 30-series.

Who pays for rigging and freight on a machine this size?

We do. Teardown, foundation removal, permits and transport are arranged and paid by Machine Tool Exchange, in all fifty states, not by you.

When do I get paid?

At pickup. No net-30 invoicing, no waiting on an auction to close before funds move. The truck arrives, the machine loads, and you are paid.

Will you buy one that is idle or partway through a teardown?

Yes. Running in production, sitting idle, or partway through a teardown are all normal. Worn ways, servo faults and missing tooling do not prevent a purchase.

Thinking about selling Waldrich-Coburg Machines?

Twenty-nine distinct models in thirty listings means almost every Waldrich-Coburg is a one-off, so none gets priced off a model table. The 30-series splits four to grinding and three to metal cutting, and build years run 1980 to 2012 with six carrying none. Send Jason Puuri the plate and a few photos and he scopes it himself, usually inside a day or two. Teardown, rigging and heavy freight are ours.
