hi I search on craigslist for CNC in Seattle and found milling machine that heavy - 10 000 lb for $3000.00. Company bought it but never run it. this is interesting responds that i got:
" The guys could run the machine manually but figuring out how to use the controller became a time consuming issue that required some expertise we didn't have. We bought another large VMC that was recommended at a deal, set it up in our shop, purchased Mastercam, went through the Mastercam training, finally found the right adaptor for our computer to talk to the controller and 6-months later, in a slower time for us we now are up and running on the newer VMC. The Cincinnati VMC is a good machine but the effort it would have taken did not make much sense at the time. If we don't sell the Cincinnati Milacron VMC soon we may have to scrap her. TW " i think important part is that controller need to be simple and need good manual about how to run it. thanks aram ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
