Sell Your Used CNC Parts and Controls

Used CNC controls, circuit boards and parts make up most of what our catalog files as CNC Miscellaneous Machines: 2,290 listings across 44 makes, more than half of them Fanuc. Some are machines that fit no other label, and some are not metalworking equipment at all. This page says which is which, and where each kind of listing belongs.

What Sits Under This Label

CNC Miscellaneous Machines is a catalog label, not a kind of machine, and the name undersells how much of it is electronics. We read a random sample of 98 of the 2,290 listings one by one. 58 were controls and the parts that run them, such as printed circuit boards, PLC processors and input and output modules, power supplies, servo drives, keyboards, memory cards, pendants and cables. 6 were tooling and workholding, such as angle plates, clamps, a three-jaw chuck and arbors. 12 were machines: 6 machine tools, among them TOS and Poreba mills, a Landis threader and a Multicam router, 5 metal forming, wire, coil and welding machines, and 1 coordinate measuring machine. 17 were equipment from other trades, including textile machines, hoists, compressors, a food processor and an excavator, and MTE does not buy those. The last 5 carried too little detail to place. So the honest summary is six in ten parts, one in ten machines, and a long tail.

Fanuc and GE Fanuc Parts

Fanuc accounts for 1,236 of the 2,290 listings. 704 of those carry a Fanuc A-series part number instead of a machine model, and the mix leans toward boards: A20B leads at 230, then A16B at 138, A02B at 103, A06B at 94, A03B at 51 and A05B at 34. Where our listing text names the item, the A20B and A16B rows in the sample are circuit boards, backplanes and memory cards. Another 233 Fanuc listings carry GE Fanuc numbers beginning IC, which the same listing text describes as PLC processors and input and output modules. Compare the Metal Cutting label, where A06B leads at 1,554. A shelf of Fanuc spares often ends up split across both labels, so if you are selling one, look at both pages, or skip the labels and send the part numbers.

Other Makers' Electronics and Spares

After Fanuc, the makes thin out fast. Haas has 120 listings here, Toshiba 97, Walter 82, Nidec Machine Tool 41, Okuma 31 and DMG MORI 12. Reading the rows shows what they are. The Haas rows include a PLC processor, a control card, a circuit board and a brushless servo amplifier, listed under Haas part numbers such as 14-1752 and 18-06-86-00. In the random sample, the Toshiba rows include circuit boards but also a hot oil controller and a television, the two DMG MORI rows are Mori Seiki circuit boards, the Okuma row is a PLC chassis, and the Nidec rows include a power inverter and a Minster servo feeder. Two make labels mislead here. Emag's 40 listings include Demag hoists and cranes, and Doosan's 35 include an air compressor and an excavator. If your spare carries a maker's part number, that number is what we need, whatever label a listing would have filed it under.

The Tos Name Is Misleading Here

298 listings sit under the make Tos, the second largest group on this page, and most of them are not TOS. Where the first sentence of the listing names the maker, 125 name TOS, 35 name Atos, whose rows here are hydraulic valves and fittings, and 8 name COMCO, whose rows are tube mills. The other 130 name neither: they are equipment from other suppliers, including textile machines, conveyors, dust collectors and roll formers, that an import filed under the wrong name. In the random sample, the genuine TOS rows were mills and their tooling: an FGV universal mill, an FP planer-type mill, an FUW vertical mill, angle plates and a tooling set. If you own a TOS machine tool, the TOS make page is the better place to start, and it covers the full line rather than the few that landed here.

Machines and Tooling That Land Here

Only 95 of the 2,290 listings share a make and model with listings our catalog files under a named machine type. Lathes lead that short list at 21, then vertical machining centers at 17 and milling machines at 14, with robots at 6 and shears and tool and cutter grinders at 5 each. Only 8 rows collapse into a make and model page, spread over 6 pages, and only 299 carry a build year. That thin record is the signature of a parts-heavy group: a circuit board has a part number and a revision, not a model year. The machines that do land here tend to be the ones no other label fits: a planer-type mill, a pipe and bolt threader, a servo press feeder, a double uncoiler, a coordinate measuring machine. If yours is one of those, send it in the same way as anything else, and say what it does.

How to Sell Controls, Boards and Parts

The form on this page asks for four things: your name, email, phone and what you have. For a part, what you have means the part number and revision from the label, the quantity, and whether it came out of a running machine, sat new in the box or is unknown. A photo of the label settles most questions. For a crib or a storeroom, a list of part numbers and quantities is enough to start, and so is a few photos of the shelves. For a control, say whether the whole cabinet is there or only the boards. Jason Puuri, who owns Machine Tool Exchange, reads every one himself and comes back with a cash offer on what MTE wants and a straight answer on what it does not. For a lot that needs to move, MTE can arrange the pickup and freight. One board and a full storeroom go through the same steps.

Common questions

Do you buy used CNC circuit boards and drives on their own, without the machine?

Yes. Most of what this label holds is exactly that: boards, PLC modules, power supplies and servo drives with a part number on the label. Send the number, the revision and the quantity.

Do you buy GE Fanuc PLC processors and I/O modules?

They are in this catalog: 233 Fanuc listings under this label carry GE Fanuc numbers beginning IC. Send the full number off the module, including the suffix letter, and whether it came out of a working rack.

What do you need to quote a Fanuc servo amplifier or board?

The full part number from the label, such as A06B or A20B followed by its digits, the revision if one is printed, the quantity, and whether it was pulled from a running machine, sat new in the box or is unknown. A clear photo of the label covers most of that.

Will you buy a CNC control cabinet that has no machine attached?

Yes. Say whether the cabinet is complete or only the boards and drives remain, which control series it is, and what machine it came off if you know. A complete cabinet and a box of loose boards are quoted differently.

Why would a part number be filed as a miscellaneous machine?

The label came in with the original import, and anything the feed could not place landed here. That is why a circuit board, a planer mill and a textile machine can share this page. The label says nothing about what MTE will or will not buy.

Do you take a whole storeroom of surplus CNC spares in one lot?

Yes. A list of part numbers and quantities, or photos of the shelves, is enough to start. The lot is quoted as one, and MTE can arrange the pickup and freight once the offer works for you.

Thinking about selling CNC Parts and Controls?

Most of this page is parts on a shelf, and parts are easy to describe: a part number, a revision, a quantity and a photo of the label. Send those in the form, and Jason Puuri will tell you straight which of it MTE wants and what it will offer.
