I am looking at getting another CNC router as there are times a second machine would be nice to get jobs done faster more importantly I cannot afford a breakdown and have had a couple of breakdowns over the years and been down for days or one time 2 weeks.
I would love to go 5 axis but that is a huge jump in price and would require expensive new software learning 5 axis programming etc. I have started looking at the Freedom machine tool routers. Pricing looks reasonable Fagor controller vs windows based on many others and ball screws on all axis. 15" z available which is good enough if I am going 3 axis and it looks like a decent machine.
Does anyone have any experience with them or DMS who is their parent company?
