In the final stages of pulling the trigger on a Brother Speedio S700X.
I'm going with the 16K spindle....
Most of my work is in 6061 Aluminum and some minor work on stainless and Grade 5 Titanium.
With that said:
I have parts that require a lot of final pass profilling work with a .062 Diameter end mill. I realize 16K really isn't enough spindle to maximize but I want to keep my machine versital for other work I do.
Wanted to see if there is anyone out there using their brother S700x with 16K spindle for small diameter milling work and if so, how is it working out for you.
