The shop in my school that my team (4587) uses has a plasma cutter which I know how to use and program. We also have this CNC lathe in which nobody at the school knows how to use at all, literally nobody. There really isn’t a manual that we can use to start to learn how either, or at least that we know of. If anyone can give any info to me or point me in the right direction to what we could use it for and how to operate it… I am sure my team would greatly appreciate it thanks! (pictured is our CNC plasma cutter and CNC lathe)
I would start by contacting the company that made the lathe…???

There is definitely a manual. Contact Hurco.
Good news is that control is super easy to use. You should be making parts in no time once you get the manual.
Sweet! Thanks for the help! It’s good to hear back from teams with MANY years of experience. I Contacted Hurco, hopefully they will reply back soon. Do you guys have a Hurco Lathe?
Nope, just know that people love the Hurco control because of how easy it is to program.
