I'm in the process of specking out a machine for the company I work for. It's basically coming down to the Haas Mini Mill 2 with the Renishaw probe system and 4th axis ready, or the Hurco VM-10.
Is the Renishaw a useable option, or is it mostly fluff. Haas demonstrated it at their showroom and it looked handy to have for setting up tools and work pieces, or going and probing a feature and automatically adjusting the cutter comp to finish to size for tight tolerance features. But is it something that once you have, you can't do without?
I've never run a Haas, but I have a Hurco. Just trying to get more information from those that know.
Thanks,
Tom
